How to Make

How to Make a Gingerbread House?  What a myriad of possible approaches!  However, there are lots of ways to create your own special house.  My "How To's" are primarily located in my HubPages articles on the subject, with additional fun and tidbits on the process here at "All Things Gingerbread". 

You'll find my overview of the Gingerbread House Making Process here.

I break the process of making a gingerbread house from scratch into a 3 day set of steps:

Baking
Assembling
Decorating

I provide different approaches for cutting out, or shaping a gingerbread house:

Gingerbread House Cookie Cutters
Gingerbread House Templates
Gingerbread House Molds

You'll also find my Royal Icing Recipe, and some thoughts on Gingerbread traditions and gifts.  As well, I cover the option of buying a pre-baked gingerbread house kit.  And if you want my favorite Gingerbread House recipe, along with alternatives for sugar cookie houses, or chocolate chip houses, you'll find them, too.

If you've arrived here via my hubs, browse around for more ideas.  If you haven't yet visited my gingerbread articles, they give a good overview on the things I've learned in 18+ years of making gingerbread houses, and in even more years of appreciating and loving them!

If you love the idea of Sugar Cookie Houses, be sure to check out my post about making sugar cookies from scratch, with my adaptation of my favorite Gingerbread house recipe.
