You could do them yourself, but they are a PIA- BTDT!! If you have the
time and know a little decorating, they aren't too hard to make- bake
a cake in a sheet pan- when cool, remove and level it with a knife if
necessary. Apply a THIN layer of jam and then top with a thin layer of
marzipan. Chill well, and then cut into squares (or whatever shape you
desire) Frost entire thing with a thin layer of buttercream and chill
again. Dip in chocolate coating- I use the fake stuff at times- almond
bark? Or if you can temper chocolate, thats even better. Decorate as
desired. Or just buy them!! They won't be cheap, but if you can afford
it, it's probably easiest!!
