Gingerbread houses

I’m firmly with you @LuFins-Dad . Gingerbread houses are a stupid waste of time & ingredients. Not fun. An incredible mess. Edible gingerbread men yes; houses nope

This… And I enjoy decorating the Gingerbread Men, too. Luke and I are working on our own little scene. It’s really hard to sharpen candy canes into spear points, though.

@Mik That's brilliant and should be very edible if kept chilled. Great for a party. Have wine ready.

I love gingerbread houses. Family tradition since my kids were little. Messy, yes, and very time consuming for me (because I bake them from scratch, using a homemade pattern) but the kids loved it, we always invited their friends, even when they got older. The gingerbread is good, the candy was good, and the results were quite edible.
