Gingerbread House Kits
If you love the fun of decorating, then devouring gingerbread houses, but don't relish the thought of baking the structure itself, we've got a treat for you! Our Gingerbread House Kits, available year round, come with everything you need to create a one of a kind edible home. Just like our cookies, the kits are totally cusomizable, from decor and candies to the icing colors. And the best part is - They are actually delicious!
Actually Delicious Gingerbread Houses!
It's a Christmas miracle, now available all year round! Our Gingerbread Kits come with everything you need to construct a beautiful, edible home. These customizable kits are a Gingerbread house builder's dream come true! Unlike most kits on the market, you get to choose the theme, colors, and all of the accessories of your new home.
We apologize, but our house kits are not available in gluten-free, egg-free, or dairy-free alternatives, due to the structural integrity of the dough.
The smaller of our two kit options, the Gingerbread Cottage will measure 3" by 5" by 7" tall when fully built.
Your Cottage kit will come with the following building materials, plus a helpful guide on how to construct it:
1 food-safe cardboard cake round (10")
2 long walls (5" x 3")
2 shorter walls with peaks (3" x 5")
2 roof pieces (6" x 3")
2 "doors"
4 bags of edible decorations (you get to choose!)
1 piping bag of white “mortar” (thicker royal icing)
3 piping bags of thinner royal icing for decorating (you choose the colors!)
2 yard decorations (of your choosing!)
Ready to go all out? Our larger kit option, the Chateau Gingerbread, will measure 4" by 6" by 8" tall when fully built.

Helpful Hints

Keep icing bags in the freezer before use. Thaw for 30 minutes
-
Knead the icing bag for 2 minutes before using to redistribute color
-
Cut a tiny hole in the decorative icing bags for piping, about 1/8 of an inch
-
Pipe the designs onto the walls *before* construction. It is much easier to do this while they are flat
-
Find limitless design inspiration online for your new home

Cut a larger hole in the white "mortar" icing bag for ease in construction. The cut point will be marked for you

Use heavy cans or other objects to help hold the walls and roof in place while they dry
