ginger bread house?

Question

hi me and my mom wanna make a ginger bread house and were looking for a kit my mom thinks she saw one in wallgreens but do u know where you would find one?

Answer 1

My son and I tried to make one of those last year. When you get yours...be careful of which one you get. The one we got had VERY thick sides and they were too heavy for the icing to hold them up. We wound up with a big mess. Just make sure the walls are thin enough.

It tasted good though!

Answer 2

I saw one in Kroger's. You also might look in the library for holiday cookbooks that have plans for making your own house (you bake sheets of gingerbread and cut them according to their plans.)

Make sure you use meringue powder for the royal icing if you plan on eating the house afterwards. If you use regular egg whites, there's a huge risk of salmonella after the house has sat out at room temperature with uncooked egg decorations. Check the baking goods aisle for powdered egg whites or royal icing mix.

Then, there's always on-line, or maybe Williams-Sonoma or Wilton cake decorating supplies. I guess they have websites.

Answer 3

most arts and crafts stores have kits but we make our own and we have a party next weekend making them, and then we display them. We don't buy the kits cuz there all the same.
