Candy is only one option for decorating a gingerbread house. You can also use cookies, pretzels, crackers, dried fruit, and cereal. Pieces of shredded wheat make a wonderful thatched roof, for example.
Gingerbread houses offer all kinds of opportunities to get creative! From adorable candy-covered confections to sophisticated centerpieces, these sweet houses are fun to decorate. Get inspired to make your own with gorgeous gingerbread house pictures that are more than just eye candy.
One lovely decorating option is to choose only white frosting and candy to embellish your house. This monochromatic motif looks sophisticated and beautiful sitting on your sideboard or dining room table.
Create Lacy Decorations
One beautiful all-white gingerbread house decorating idea is to make lacy designs with icing. You’ll need a very fine piping tip to do this, and it’s good to practice on a scrap piece before you start on the main house. You can do some white on white decorations on the roof, add decorative lacy hearts to the sides, and even make a delicate lacy design around the base.
Make a Winter Wonderland Gingerbread House
Get inspired by a favorite Christmas carol, Walking in a Winter Wonderland. You can create a winter wonderland gingerbread house by using lots of white icing to create snow and icicles along the eves. Don’t forget to add snow above windows and doors too, as well as snowbanks and a snowy path to the door. Add other elements like trees, and colorful decorations for even more winter fun.
