Örreke's Marzipan Truffle-making Workshop

Did you know that according to legend, it was an Estonian pharmacist who mixed the world's first marzipan? The birth of this delicacy was accidental, but marzipan quickly became a part of celebrations, medicines, and a luxury item.

In this Örreke workshop, we will delve into the fascinating history of marzipan and its connections to medieval Tallinn. We will discuss which ingredients were used in old recipes and how marzipan has gained fame throughout history. For the practical part, we will shape small truffles by hand, flavor them with berry powder, and pack them in a beautiful gift box.
