Gingerbread House

This is the completed house. It's really a cake, with 'fake' frosting {see the tubs on the counter?} on it that Stephanie painted with food coloring. No, there isn't a brown food color, she just mixed colors. The stars and trees are marshmallows.
You might want to click the pic to really get a good view of this. I love her snowman! And to think there isn't a pinch of ginger anywhere near this creation. No foundant or royal icing either, just all the fake stuff lathered all over a cake from a box mix. Well, 2 boxes.

  1. I love it!

    My favorite parts are the Santa, cuz he's the "star" and the birdie footprints in the snow.

    Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Vicky!

  3. That's one clever girl you got there, Vicky! Well, I guess technically, you have two clever girls, or three, or four... :o)

  4. I think that's a great "gingerbread" house. I always hate to eat the real ones, but one could attack this one from the backside and it wouldn't show right away.
