We spent a much of a class shaping marzipan fruit. I thought it would be exceedingly dull, but it wasn't--it was actually quite a bit of fun. We learnt how to make all sorts of fruit and got to try our hand at different figurines (whatever struck our fancy). I made:
|  | 
| A pineapple | 
|  | 
| A banana | 
|  | 
| A fig | 
|  | 
| A strawberry | 
|  | 
| A peach | 
|  | 
| A pea pod | 
|  | 
| A peach | 
|  | 
| A bunch of grapes | 
|  | 
| Cherries (the stem is a scraped and dried vanilla bean split into three 'branches') | 
|  | 
| An orange | 
|  | 
| An apple (the stem is a star anise) | 
|  | 
| A pear (the stem and the star in the bottom--that you can't see in this photo--are star anise) | 
|  | 
| Blueberries | 
|  | 
| A cat | 
|  | 
| A snail |
