Konditorei Niederegger

Theoretically, marzipan is the mixture of ground almonds and sugar. The German version is made of two parts almond to one part sugar, it is cooked, then the paste is partially dried. Established in 1806, Niederegger is regarded as producing the finest quality marzipan in Germany with only 35% sugar content. The Konditorei-Café Niederegger in the centre of Luebeck is a marzipan institution featuring a café, a shop for their own-branded sweets and a marzipan museum on the upper floors. Their Fürst-Pückler-Torte (Neapolitan cake) with a cup of marzipan coffee is a must-have when in Luebeck.
