None. If I crave for something crunchy I eat carrots or nuts. If I want to eat sweets I make my own brownies, marzipan or chocolate chip cookies. And if I really want to each chips/crisps I make my own batch.

When you say you make your own marzipan, do you start from almonds? That seems like so much work- is it significantly cheaper or better than store bought marzipan or do you just prefer to be self sufficient?

When I have time I do it from scratch but usually I end up using almond flour.

Does it taste better? Almond flour is over three times the price of marzipan here, so it looks like it would be more expensive to make it myself, but I love marzipan and am down to pay more and put some work in for better marzipan.

I could also just see the prices being different elsewhere, though, given that I’m in Germany and marzipan is a much more common ingredient than almond flour here.
