You can buy the kernels themselves. Look for them on the net.
They are also called bitter almonds. Good luck!
Does anyone have experience and can tell me how to open an apricot pit?
+ last time I tried I used a vise grip to hold it and a hammer and chisel to split it open. It worked.

Do I cut the branches on a two year old apricot tree? The tree gives lots of apricots but is really untidy?
Apricots can be pruned in the fall, in the spring, or when you perceive a problem. Any limbs that are facing inward you should remove to the main branch, but untidy branches - only remove 1/3 of the branch if possible (to assure a good crop next year). It is not really necessary to paint or put wound paint on if your tree is healthy and you are not experiencing a lot of rain or moisture. I've done this for years with all the stone fruit trees in my orchard with no significant consequences. Good luck with your project!

You can prune the limbs after the sap gos down. Cut out
all the limbs that cross each other. that rub and are too
low to mow under. Of coarse it will reduce your apricot
harvest. Paint all the cuts with a good pruning dope to
keep out insects. Don't over do it the first year.
Good luck.
Reply:Sure. Pruning has its purposes: removing injured or dead parts, improving production, and developing a specific shape. It is best to wait until the tree is dormant for heavy pruning, but if there is a real problem right now, minor trimming shouldn't be an issue.

How to Make Neapolitan Cookies
You can make a variety of shapes, colors, and flavors with this basic recipe--from shamrocks to Christmas cookies. In the accompanying pictures, we made tri-colored cookies with chocolate, almond, and cherry doughs.
Ingredients
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (optional)
flavors and extracts (your choice)
food colors (your choice)
Directions
1. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together.
2. Cream the butter and sugar together. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth. Continue beating until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the dry ingredients in two parts, mixing after each. Mix just until combined.
3. Divide the dough into two, three, or four parts depending on how many different doughs you choose to make.
For the chocolate dough:
For one half of the dough, melt two ounces of chocolate. For one fourth of the dough, melt one ounce of chocolate. While still warm, work the chocolate into the dough until uniform.
For flavored and colored doughs:
Add four or five drops of food coloring in each one fourth or one third part. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 teaspoon almond, 1/4 teaspoon peppermint, 1 teaspoon cherry, 1 teaspoon strawberry, or other extracts to the dough and mix in.
4. Form the dough into cylinders, squares, or layers—a separate color or flavor for each. Refrigerate until firm.
5. Cut the dough into 1/4-inch thick slices. To form the cloverleaf shape shown, cut each colored cylinder separately but gently press the different colored discs together on the cookie sheet. Bake on ungreased cookies sheets at 350 degrees for ten to twelve minutes or until the cookies are nearly firmed and very lightly browned. Do not over bake. Cool on wire racks.
