Whisk the margarine until fluffy, then slowly stir in the marzipan until completely blended. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar and stir until dissolved. Gradually mix in the egg, almond extract, flour, and cornstarch. Transfer the mixture to a large piping bag fitted with a 9mm star nozzle. Pipe small rings onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper and chill briefly. This will help them hold their shape better. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and bake for 10-11 minutes. Glue two rings together while still warm with the warm jelly, then sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar.
