Off-site marzipan workshops

Interest activity for schoolchildren

For over a decade, we have been bringing our knowledge of Estonian national sweets to schools across the country, particularly during the beginning and end of the school year. Our marzipan workshops are met with enthusiasm from children who learn about this unique and fun treat that can be molded, painted, and eaten. It’s not often that you get to indulge in a treat that you’ve created yourself, so the opportunity to do so with marzipan is truly something to cherish.

You stay where you are - we come to your place!

Our master classes can take place outside of our gallery walls, bringing the magical atmosphere closer to you. We provide the same equipment for off-site classes as we do in the gallery. After creating your marzipan figures, we will pack them in boxes for you to take home. If the necessary equipment is available, we can also show an educational film about the history of marzipan.

Specifically for educational institutions

Interesting extracurricular educational activity

If you’re looking to organize an engaging activity for the entire elementary school at once, our off-site workshop is just for you. Our master class can be tailored to coincide with one of the holidays during the school year, such as Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas, Friendship Day, or Easter. This way, the children can create a themed figurine and pack it in a box as a gift for their friends or family members.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

The title says it all. I actually don't like Marzipan, but we wondered around the old town of Tallinn and my wife just wanted to see the display. Then she convinced me to taste Pistachio Marzipan and I was totally blown away. My biggest regret from visiting Tallinn is not buying enough of this stuff.

This shop offers an ecstatic trip to senses as you delight your taste, nose and eyes with the amazing variety of marzipan edible figures, candies and chocolates. If you bring your children they can build their own marzipan figures for only 4euros! There is a museum under the shop with large colorful figures made from marzipan!

The popularity of marzipan lies in the history of Reval as Tallinn was then called. It was part of the Northern Hansa towns through which goods moved efficiently, also the recipe for marzipan from Lubeck. You can buy the sweet here, enjoy it with a cup of coffee, model or paint it yourself and finally visit the exhibition of larger figurines in the basement.

Just wandering down the cobblestone street of Tallinn when we saw this amazing shop/Gallery! Went in and was blown away by all the Marzipan sculptures! We were told to go downstairs and have a look around as well. There we encountered more sculptures... Life size, cartoon characters, buildings, animals... Worth the time to go and see!

Difficult to resist a small sample of various flavors of marzipan, so stopped in for a snack and drink. Upstairs were groups of little kids making marzipan shapes. Downstairs was the "museum" of lots of marzipan figures. Still, I will remember it as the only marzipan museum I have been to and it was free, so I have to like that.
