<p>I think just a tablespoon of water added in place of all corn syrup, along with 1/2 to 1 tsp. extra almond flavoring or amaretto. I've used them both and like both, so however you want to flavor it would be up to you. I've also found using Ghirardelli 60% chocolate chips found at Sam's, using 1 cup melted with 1 tablespoon Crisco mixed in once it's been melted, tastes the most like the deep dark chocolate coating that is so often found on German chocolate candies.

It doesn't come out of molds worth a darn though, but if you are dipping chocolates, it has an awesome flavor to it. I'm not real cracked about the coating that we have in America as far as milk chocolate coating. It needs that bitter chocolate taste to compliment the marzipan...at least in my book it does.</p> Thank you for your quick repl…tag:cakeswebake.com,2012-12-12:4635016:Comment:11367832012-12-12T16:25:02.952Zm.r.jensenhttps://cakeswebake.com/profile/mrjensen
<p>Thank you for your quick reply.</p>
<p>What are you thinking about to thin it down with? Just a little water? How much?</p>
<p>A person might have to adjust the almond flavor as well.</p>

<p>You bet, m.r. I would thin it down just a little since the coffee syrup isn't quite as thick as corn syrup, though.</p>

<p>Would it be possible to substitute something else for the almond coffee syrup?</p>
<p>How about corn syrup?</p>

<p><strong>This is cool. I purchased it. It is pricey. I still have one roll, but after I use that, I will make it : ) I mixed it with chocolate clay for blue roses.</strong></p>

<p>By the way, George and I went to the commissary last weekend over at Offutt Air Force base and I found the Red Mill almond flour/meal for $6.50! I bought 2 and put them into the freezer for another time. If you don't use the whole package, Goreti, you can freeze it very well. If you let it sit out for too many months up in your cupboard, it will start to smell rancid. Any nut flours can be frozen until you are ready to use them.</p>
