I found a recipe online and made a hugeeee double batch to make this house, I was really excited to make it and decorate it.
The pieces were baked correctly, I made them the right size and made sure they fit together perfectly. But when it came to decorating it and fixing it together it turned out to be a bit of a disaster..
This is how the house should have looked:
I came to a problem with the roof, I had watched a video on how to construct it but it just didn't work. Instead of throwing the house across the room like I felt like doing, I decided to just calm down and think of a way to fix it so it still looked nice enough to eat.
Here is the final piece... With a few smarties missing off the roof:
Although it looks like a bomb shelter, I feel glad that I was able to assess the situation and give the poor gingerbread house a roof. In the end, icing sugar can fix everything! |
Better luck next year?
