Dreaming of Sugarplums, Gummy Bears, and Frosting

Gingerbread House 2003

What is better than house–shaped gingerbread, frosting, gumdrops, candy, icing, M & M's, and more candy to celebrate Christmas? Wonderfully decorated by our friend Peyton, this gingerbread house shows that whimsy is all the rage in edible edifices. In fact, Gothamist thinks that more actual buildlings should incorporate gingerbread men to their roofs or gables.

And notice, along with the gummy bear roofing, the dreidel siding, because, as Peyton says, "We're all a little Jewish sometimes." Truer were words never uttered!

    Please tell how you did the joining and caulking of your gingerbread house. My friend had a disaster with peanut butter, another used Jiff, but it looked scary to the arteries. Does anyone really eat these things anyways or can you safely use a glue gun and bathtub caulking?

    The train detailing is perfect, I agree. And we're all a little bit Jewish, all a little bit Chinese, all a little bit crazy.

  • a little ganif, always

    I do approve of the choo choo train detailing. Well done!

  • some of us are a little jewish all the time!

    Maybe we are also all a little Chinese whose civilization dates back as far as the Jewish one.
