WHAT YOU WILL NEED

Transfer the almond flour and powdered sugar to a food processor and blitz until well combined and smooth.

STEP 1

Then, add the water or liquid sweetener, almond extract, and rose water (if using). Pulse just a few times until the dough forms a ball.

STEP 2

If the dough is too dry and doesn’t clump up, add more liquid, just a few drops at a time. If it’s too wet, add more almond flour.

STEP 3

Remove the almond paste ball from the processor, knead it gently on a clean surface for about 30 seconds, and roll it into a log.

STEP 4

Then wrap it in cling film and place it in the refrigerator until firm (which makes it easier to work with when shaping, rolling out on a cake, etc.). Enjoy!
