Sosa Raw Almond Paste 1kg

Almond Paste

Sosa Raw Almond Paste 1kg is a smooth, pure almond paste made from carefully selected raw almonds, designed to give an authentic almond flavour without the heaviness of a pre sweetened marzipan style paste. Because it is made from raw almonds, it has a clean, natural nuttiness and a pale colour that works beautifully in both patisserie and everyday baking, from cakes and tarts to creams, mousses and ice cream. It mixes easily into hot or cold preparations, helping you add almond flavour, richness and body while keeping control of sweetness in the final recipe. If you are looking to buy raw almond paste for baking, homemade frangipane, almond creams, dessert fillings or gelato style bases, this one kilogram format is a practical choice for keen home bakers and anyone who enjoys making desserts from scratch.

What is the difference between raw almond paste and marzipan?

Raw almond paste is generally unsweetened or only lightly sweetened and is used as an ingredient to bring almond flavour and richness to recipes, while marzipan is heavily sweetened and usually firm enough to roll and shape. Raw almond paste is better when you want to decide the sweetness yourself and use it inside batters, creams and fillings rather than as a decorative layer.

Can I use raw almond paste to make frangipane?

Yes, it is a great base for frangipane because it gives a strong almond flavour and a smooth texture. Mix it with butter, sugar and eggs to your preferred balance, then add a little flour if needed for structure, which makes it easy to tailor for tarts, galettes and baked fruit desserts.

How much almond paste should I add to a recipe?

There is no single fixed amount because it depends on how pronounced you want the almond flavour and how rich you want the texture. A helpful approach is to start with a small spoonful in creams or batters, taste as you go, and increase gradually until it tastes right, remembering that flavours can mellow slightly once baked or frozen.
