I got the gingerbread house kit from IKEA, Its not really a kit per-say but it has the walls...so I guess the tricky bit is done for you. The icing is Royal icing which is made from egg whites, icing sugar and lemon juice. You simply assemble your house and decorate as you wish. Since I can remember Ive always wanted to make my own gingerbread house but I was too young and then with work and other commitments finding the time to make one so close to christmas was never do-able. So..when I saw this kit in IKEA I grabbed one...and finally a dream is made reality haha. Im pretty proud of it and for a first attempt I think it turned out really well!! I think a new tradition has been established.. and it was sooo fun to do!! What do you think? Did you make a gingerbread house or do any other festive baking?
The big day is only hours away now so I hope all of my readers and followers have a Merry Christmas :)

I am pleasantly surprised because if that were my gingerbread house it would not turn out as beautiful and perfect as that! I am sure a lot of others would not have the patience to do this also. I love the little circle candy's on the roof, makes a cute touch but also a small pop of colour without going overboard.
