This also gives the ingredients for the marzipan to make it yourself. I feel sure that you can use what you have and follow the remaining instructions. These looked and sounded SOOO good. Hope this helps.

Chocolate-Covered Cherry Marzipan
Makes 60 candy slices

1 can (8 ounces) almond paste
1 egg white*
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar, divided
2 to 3 drops red food coloring
1 cup dried cherries
6 ounces premium semisweet chocolate, chopped
6 ounces premium milk chocolate, chopped

*Use only grade A fresh, clean uncracked egg or use pasteurized dried or liquid egg whites.

To prepare marzipan, beat almond paste and egg white in medium bowl with electric mixer at medium speed until blended. Add 2 cups powdered sugar and red food coloring; beat at low speed until well mixed. Place marzipan on surface lightly dusted with powdered sugar. Knead in remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar and cherries until smooth and pliable.

Shape marzipan into 3 logs, each 10 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. Wrap logs in waxed paper; refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Melt chocolate in top of double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Uncover; stir until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat.

Unwrap marzipan logs; place on waxed paper. For first layer of chocolate, spread 2 tablespoons melted chocolate over top and side of each marzipan log. Let stand 20 minutes or until chocolate sets. Roll logs 1/2 turn; spread each log with 2 tablespoons melted chocolate to coat. Let stand 20 minutes or until chocolate sets.

For second layer, repeat step 4 with remaining melted chocolate. Let stand until chocolate sets. (If not set in 20 minutes, refrigerate 10 minutes.) Slice logs into 1/2-inch slices. Store in airtight container at room temperature.
