Waffle cone tree
To do this window, you put
the yellow on first, then the candle,
and then the white. You have to
think ahead and plan the order of adding things.

This type of design, just using candy instead of icing
techniques, will get you a “passing grade” but not
much better. This would be the design a child would
make… not a culinary “artist”.
Use your skills. You can make borders; basket weave; use a
grass tip for grass or straw or a grass hut; use various tips; mold sugar; …be creative!

Cookies and graham crackers
are used here

Slivered almonds, thin mints, flat
candies, or cereal make good shingles
Some pieces may be made with cookie
cutters

Frosted mini-wheats cereal for shingles
Looks like this could be a
snowman made out of fondant.

The roof and the chimney are covered in ruffles, using your 104
rose tip
Royal icing can be mixed to a soft
consistency, and dragged down to form icicles; it dries quickly
and hardens

You have to think about your structure and your landscaping
![Page 11: Waffle cone tree To do this window, you put the yellow on first, then the candle, and then the white. You have to think ahead and plan the order of](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081602/5516cdb8550346b5748b46a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Until the icing hardens, you may have to be creative in “bracing”
your structure at various points throughout the
construction.
Did you see the windows? They look like stained glass or colored
light…but are actually colored lollipop candy
syrup poured out and cooled in pieces that are attached to the
inside.
Be careful on corners. You have to cover areas of these up with frosting or trim. The
gingerbread can be left brown and decorated or, more commonly in fabulous creations, the entire house is frosted and
decorated.

Great gingerbread houses often have a “theme”. What will your theme be? Hawaiian beach hut? Cinderella’s carriage? Santa’s house at the north pole? The reindeer’s barn? Haunted house? Christmas cottage? A dog house? Log cabin? A store, such as a candy store or music store?
Be creative!

To create round forms, you may
have to bake your dough on the
outside of a pan or bowl!

Avoid “over decorating”. Here, there are so many
decorations, the structure seems sloppy and cluttered. Simple
structures, perfectly detailed, are better.
Oops…. They broke the biggest rule in
gingerbread artistry. Everything should be
edible.
