Create-A-Treat E-Z Build Gingerbread House Decorating Kit, Holiday Gift, 29.9 oz + Bonus CHIPS AHOY! Mini Cookie Snack Pack

Worth every penny! My grandkids made these with ease which made it a lot of fun after watching the 2 minute video. The tray base is a game changer. Every gingerbread house should come with one. They literally put these houses together in minutes. Once the house was put together we waited the 15 minutes before decorating them. The kit comes with nice candy and enough icing that they loved. The extra art piece that's included to color and place on top is just awesome. We haven't tried eating any yet so I cannot comment on taste. I did read positive reviews on taste though before purchasing.

Well. I shouldn't quit my day job to go on a baking show just yet, ya'll! The kit was great. I do have arthritis so squeezing the tube was difficult even after massaging it as instructed. Good value for the money and made for a hilarious memory with my child, who had specifically requested we build a gingerbread house this year.

This is a fun thing to do at holiday gatherings.

It was a cute little project to do with the kids

Ok. My first gingerbread house and while silently being observed by someone who has made many, in the aftermath here are our pros and cons. Pros. It came shipped with all parts unbroken. The gingerbread flavor was very nice. All of the candy that came with is tasted really nice as well. The instructions and setup were clear and simple. After a little trial and error it came out great and we had a fun time and were very pleased. Cons. At room temperature (70°f) it took a lot longer than expected for the frosting to harden, however after it did, it was very solid. Many pieces slid down while trying to decorate too early. Eventually we just let it sit overnight to let the main structure set before decorating. Some of the walls had to be trimmed to fit better. Not a huge deal. We used a vegetable peeler to smooth them. Our take. Highly recommended. Now that we know the nuances the one next year will be better. We took it out of its plastic base and put down some fake snow and jar light to fancy it up. We will definitely buy it again.

First, these were SOOO YUMMY! I always order 5 gingerbread houses, so each of my kids can make their own. I buy the cheaper small ones, and they taste like cardboard but they still have fun. This year, I bought 1 for myself... THIS ONE...and OMG, this is amazing! The cookie tastes like gingerbread should, and the frosting was delicious and plenty to put together properly. Its thick, and not runny. The only thing that sucked was several pieces were completely broken, and it had obviously been dropped...but the taste outweighs the look and I definitely recommend!!!

My grandchildren loved putting this together. A treat to eat later!!

My three favorite children loved these easy to do ginger houses. This has become a family holiday tradition for them.
