What you’ll find

What Kaliningrad Marzipan Museum is known for

The Toropov family opened Russia's first marzipan museum in Kaliningrad's Youth Park in 2011, pairing exhibits on the confection's Königsberg history with a small production line that hand-shapes and hand-paints marzipan to a 50-percent-almond, rose-water recipe. Visitors can watch pieces made to order and take workshops in painting their own marzipan discs.
