Gingerbread Houses 2008



This is the gingerbread farm I made to display at the Winterfest Contest this year. The gingerbread barn is covered in Strawberry Rips Licorice Belts with Watermelon Rip Rolls on the roof. Claus & Co. Lollipops provide the faces of Farmer Santa, Rudolph, and the Elf farm hands. Licorice Dreams provide fence posts and apple EIFFEL bonbons fill the reindeer's feeding trough. The silo is made of crispy rice with a waffle bowl top. I hope the community has fun looking at all the samples (and entries) in the Gingerbread House Contest we are sponsoring!


The sample house I made for this year's contest, made to look like the posters created by one of our Designers. The trees are made of Rips Licorice and the boulders around the house are EIFFEL bonbons. The soldiers are gummy candy from our Elfworks Candy 'n Canes.



Here's the sample indoor scene I made. The fireplace is made of EIFFEL bonbons with Rips licorice stockings hung on the gingerbread mantle. A Santa-shaped 'Polar Pals' marshmallow lollipop is delivering presents to put under the Rips Licorice tree (with jellybean lights).  Rainbow Reaction Rip Rolls provide a colorful rug and curtains to complete the room.
