We even have Panetone here in the south!! I've seen it at places like TJ Maxx's, Home Goods, and Marshalls. My mom likes it. I don't care for it.

Almond Paste use to make candies. It's like a dough and it's formed into fruit shaped pieces. Yum. And it's covered in Chocolate..more yum.
Usually grocery stores will have it during the holidays in their International Food or Gourmet sections.
