Placement can vary by store, but it’s often stocked with baking ingredients. If you’re shopping in person or placing a pickup order, these spots are common:

• Baking aisle: Near pie fillings, baking chocolate, or nuts.
• Seasonal displays: Especially around holidays when baking items are featured.
• International foods: Sometimes with European baking staples.

If you’re in-store, a team member can point you to the right aisle. When shopping on Walmart.com or the Walmart app, searching “almond paste” and selecting your store can help surface in-stock options, and some locations offer a store map feature to show the aisle. Availability may vary by location.

They’re related but used differently. In general:

• Almond paste: Less sweet and a bit coarser. It’s commonly mixed into batters and doughs (think cookies, cakes, or pastries) to add almond flavor and texture.
• Marzipan: Sweeter and smoother. It’s typically shaped or rolled for candies and cake decorations.

Substituting one for the other can change sweetness and texture. If you try a swap, you may need to adjust sugar and moisture in the recipe, and the result can vary based on the specific dough or batter. Checking your recipe’s intent (filling vs. candying/decorating) usually helps guide the better choice.

It’s typically labeled simply as “almond paste.” You may see similar products, but they’re not identical:

• Marzipan: A sweeter, smoother product often used for candy and decorations.
• Almond filling: Usually a spreadable mixture thinned with syrup; texture and use can differ.
• Almond butter: Ground almonds without added sugar; not interchangeable in most baking recipes.

If a recipe calls for almond paste, look for packaging that lists ground almonds and sugar as primary ingredients. When shopping online on Walmart.com, searching “almond paste” and reviewing product details can help confirm you’re selecting the right item for your recipe.

It’s straightforward to shop for almond paste on Walmart.com or the Walmart app:

• Search: Enter “almond paste” to see available options.
• Set your location: Add your ZIP/postal code to view pickup, delivery, or shipping availability in your area.
• Filter & compare: Filter by size and format, and review descriptions to match your recipe needs.
• Choose fulfillment: Select delivery, curbside pickup, or shipping based on what’s offered for your store.

Stock and assortment can vary by location and time. If you bake often, you may also see multi-pack options alongside single packages, which can be convenient for larger projects.

Keeping air and moisture out helps maintain texture and flavor:

• Wrap tightly: Press plastic wrap directly against the paste, then seal it in an airtight container.
• Refrigerate: Store in the refrigerator to help preserve freshness. Follow any storage directions on the package.
• Freeze for longer: Portion into recipe-size pieces, wrap well, and freeze. Thaw in the fridge and let it come to room temperature before using.

Storage times can vary by brand and formulation, so checking the packaging for best-by guidance is advisable. If texture firms up after chilling, gentle kneading at room temperature can help bring it back.
