Sugar architecture

I had purchased a gingerbread kit from Whole foods when shopping for Thanksgiving dinner. Ever since, Dylan's been anxiously waiting to make it with Auntie Chelsea. So the time came last week.

Clearly I didn't read the box well. Instead of consisting of pre-made cookies, you actually have to bake them using the box as a stencil. I love baking, but not something that will never reach my tummy. It turned a fun project from simple to three hours! Next year, I'll be looking to buy one that contains ready-to-go cookies, frosting AND candy.

Dylan had a great time and did a fantastic job. I think though that more candy and frosting may have ended up in his tummy (and on the floor) than the house.
The goods...

Licking...

More licking...

Ta da!
