Little mid-week blog post for you today.
I built a gingerbread house (from a kit) with my sister.
We bought the kit from Tesco for £4!
Here we go...
In the kit, you get:
- The building tray.
- The walls and roof pieces.
- The squeezy icing.
- Different sweets for decoration.
On the back of the box you get easy to follow instructions with pictures too.
You squidge a lot of the icing into the grooves in the tray and ice the back sides of the front and back walls and pop them into the tray. After that you slide the smaller walls in between, gently pressing to help them stick.
Once you've let the walls set, ice along the top of the front and back walls and gently place the roof pieces on. Hold them in place for a minute to let them adhere and then let the whole house set for half an hour (You could catch up on Big Bang Theory like we did).
Once your house has set, you can get to decorating! We mimicked the design on the box with a few of our own little twists.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out and it was made much easier with the tray.It was lovely to spend time with my sister too.
Have you ever made a gingerbread house? Have you ever been really brave and built one from scratch? Leave me a comment!
Thanks for reading, I'll speak to you soon!
