Directions

  1. 1

    Line two baking trays with baking paper. Coarsely grate 50 g marzipan. Knead flour, sugar, orange peel, 1 pinch of salt, grated marzipan, butter in pieces and 1 egg first with a hand mixer and then briefly with your hands until smooth.

  2. 2

    Cover and chill for about 1 hour.

  3. 3

    Roll out the dough onto some flour to a thickness of about 4 mm. Cut out about 10 ovals or circles (about 10 cm Ø). Place on the baking trays. Press the wooden handles into the ovals from the side facing 1⁄3 to make lollipops.

  4. 4

    Spread lollipops with cream. Bake one after the other in the preheated oven (electric oven: 175 °C/circulating air: 150 °C/gas: level 2) for about 18 minutes. Cool down.

  5. 5

    Form approx. 10 balls from 50 g marzipan. Sift icing sugar for the icing. Beat 1 egg white, lemon juice and icing sugar in a tall mixing bowl until thick and creamy. Colour half of the icing red with food colouring.

  6. 6

    Pour red and white icing into 1 disposable piping bag each and cut off a small corner at the bottom. Decorate lollipops with it. Use chocolate lentils as eyes and marzipan balls as nose to stick on the lollipops.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle the beard with sugar crystals. Let the icing dry overnight.
