1. Blend the icing sugar, finely ground almonds, egg whites, salt and almond extract in a blender until perfectly blended. 
2. Chill covered 24 hours to harden.

TIP: If you want, you can melt some chocolate au bain marie. Make shapes from the marzipan and use a toothpick to dip the marzipan shapes into the melted chocolate. Let it then dry and get hard again. Great treats for X-mas.
