(kinda ugly in the beginning)

(my name isn't on a piece of paper, but it is written in red icing on the platter...)

hello :3

I'm tentatively finished for now, unless I come up with anything else to add! It took me a couple of days to get everything done that's on the winter castle now.

got my frosting made and gathered up my supplies


started getting my graham crackers. I used a box in the middle since I didn't have enough to do the entire thing out of graham crackers.


I started getting the chocolate decorations ready so they'd have a chance to set up.

I got the second level added and worked on the towers

I got the rest set up, it was pretty ugly though!

I worked on frosting and carving it so that it looked more like a castle

I got some of my chocolate decorations put together


more chocolate decorations

And Santa's chocolate sleigh! (Which took three attempts to make)

Here's the castle with all of the attached decorations (I added food colored, cut up marshmallows as stars on the trees)

A nice layer of coconut snow makes it look much more wintery

The addition of the sleigh and Rudolph makes it look complete! I dusted some powdered sugar over the top just to give it a frosty look


Closeup of Rudolph


The sleigh all piled up with presents


And the tree, dusted with snow



All the decorations were handmade out of chocolate, except for Rudolph who was half Oreo, half chocolate.
It was a lot more difficult than I had anticipated, but I had a lot of fun with it!

hi i'm New i don't know what to do here

Well, if I were you, then I'd start by reading the directions in the first post. If you still don't understand, then you should look at other players' examples.

If you have any specific questions about what to do here, however, I or someone else would be happy to help you out.

I sadly didn't read all the rules when I made it.. I only took one photo before I ate it in anger at how much trouble it was.... lol

It is fine if that disqualifies me, I just want to share ^.^

Here's my gingerbread house:


I started by baking the gingerbread and putting the pieces together.


I then cut marshmallows in half and put them on the corners of the house. I also tiled the roof in chocolate melts.


Then I placed some mini multi-coloured raspberries around the top of the front in a circle. Also used a snake as the door arch and an m&m as the door handle.


Repeated the raspberry circle on the back and used frosting to make a window.


Placed some tree shaped gingerbread next to the house.


I added some icing sugar to make it look like snow.

Trying to use colored frosting for the first time! :P But I definitely enjoyed it tho.

Got together with Rixva yesterday and we made our gingerbread houses together :3

Starting off


Assembled (though the roof kept falling off DX)


Finsihed! (finally lol XD)


First one side...


Then the other...


Finally a more aerial view


Overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, even if I had to reattach the roof like 3 times XD Also you can see a bit of Rixva's house in the background of a couple of my pictures XD
