I think it'll be fine, as long as it has some flavor to it :) (US corn syrup, for example, is a bad idea.)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224478760304481724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-81400770122148180762011-12-10T16:58:45.586+01:002011-12-10T16:58:45.586+01:00gosh it looks so good. i am tempted.gosh it looks so good. i am tempted.Shoutforfoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07521170098986387812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-25993927091461290812011-12-10T16:48:08.605+01:002011-12-10T16:48:08.605+01:00Hi Anne, I just found your blog when searching for...Hi Anne, I just found your blog when searching for a pepperkarkor recipe. You have some lovely recipes here! One question about the pepperkarkor: I live in Germany and your recipe calls for "dark syrup" - do you think Zuckerrübensyrup would be okay to substitute?Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05625950990926813867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-49642435672885252012011-12-09T21:11:20.782+01:002011-12-09T21:11:20.782+01:00Neither, but close to marzipan.

Almond paste is very readily available here - every grocery store has it, so much of our holiday candy is based on it.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224478760304481724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-70324360304412465502011-12-09T21:04:43.529+01:002011-12-09T21:04:43.529+01:00By almond paste, do you mean marzipan, or like pea...By almond paste, do you mean marzipan, or like peanut butter made with almonds?
