Tips:

  • To ensure the almond delights have a smooth texture, make sure the almond paste is finely ground before mixing it with the other ingredients.
  • When forming the almond filling balls, use slightly damp hands to prevent the mixture from sticking to your fingers.
  • Be careful not to over-bake the almond delights, as this will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them until they are just set and still slightly soft in the center.
  • To achieve a glossy finish, brush the almond delights with melted chocolate or apricot glaze before serving.
  • Store the almond delights in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
