Wonderful ginger bread you had there. Just input, don't whip butter for more than 20-30 sec as the cookies will be puffed up and eventually the house design is gonna be ruined
Does whipping butter help a cookie be fluffier? So, not good for something like gingerbread but maybe good for other kinds of cookies?
Lovely! I noticed that on of the edges of the dough had lifted on one of the bigger pieces. A tip to prevent this is to put another baking sheet on top of the dough after you take it out of the oven, the weight will keep it flat :)
Oh, great tip for keeping the house pieces flat…thank you!
I wanna say that I applaud your talent and time you put into this beautiful gingerbread house! It deserves all the awards!
this is the prettiest gingerbread house ive seen!
The most beautiful gingerbread house I’ve ever seen! And your calm patient teaching even helps me believe I could do it. Thank you so much!
The house is so beautiful! Stunning....💚
What an absolutely adorable, cozy little house! Love love love! I am definitely going to make this and can not wait. Love the window idea!
Thank you for sharing! Would love more videos like this...
Your gingerbread house is so incredible! Your talent and teaching abilities are amazing!!
Thank you so much!!!
Congratulations. What a beautiful little house. Your artistry is inspiring - all the filigree and fine detail. Your narration is also engaging - calm, patient, and encouraging. This felt like the creation of a little fairy tale world.
Wow thank you so much! That is the best compliment 🥰 I was definitely going for little fairy tale world! So glad you enjoyed, take care 😊
Beautiful!!
I love the idea of using gelatin sheets for the windows. What a genius idea! I've seen so many people struggle with isomalt and other baking things to try to make windows. I think they look amazing and save you from so much hassle. Thanks for sharing your awesome ideas! ❤
The level of details are really impressive! Specially with all that patience, congrats for such a beautiful artwork!
Marvellous!!!
Thank you SO much for the tutorial and the plan. It took me 2 days but the results are incredible!! I looooooooove it
So glad you tried it out and it went well!! yay!
Such a pretty house and so worth the minimal expense to get the pdf. Thank you! I did find the dough REALLY stuck to the parchment, but when I rolled it out on a silpat, It didn't stick at all. Can't wait to decorate.
This is the most beautiful gingerbread house I’ve ever scene! Thank you for the thorough instructions. I can’t wait to make one!!!❤
Aw thank you so much!! I hope you have fun with it ☺️

Что может быть лучше дома, который ты можешь съесть? Только дом, в котором ты будешь жить! Ну а это - просто шедевр!
Many thanks to the author! You have proved to me that a masterpiece can be created from anything, the main thing is to know how 💖

This is stunning!
Thank youu 🥰
It’s beautiful, true piece of art! I love the details - the roof must have taken a long time!
beautiful work.
Beautiful! I love your icicles!
What a wonderful teaching video. You are an excellent teacher and you give so many great tips and suggestions along the way. I’m so glad that I found this video on YTube, because the only previous experience I have had with making and decorating a gingerbread house was with a cheap kit that I found at my local drugstore. I purchased one of these premade kits at the last minute as a fun project to do with one of my clients. I am a caregiver for older seniors and I am constantly looking for fun projects for us to do together. This is not only fun, but it also keeps their minds stimulated and gives them something fulfilling to accomplish. Anyway, this premade kit was I thought a good idea, but it turned out frustratingly difficult because it kept falling apart due to the icing that came with the kit being too thin to hold everything together! And I realized too late that we should have decorated each section separately, let them dry/harden first, and then put them together using a better quality icing. Oh well, you live and you learn! Thanks again for the very enjoyable video. I will have to definitely attempt this again, but from scratch and not a cheap kit! Merry Christmas to you and your family from a new subscriber!😄🎄🎁🎅🕊️🎄
Excellent work... Thank you for sharing your ideas and technic... I have made several houses.. but I will use your technic for next Christmas..

Great video. I’m making one next year after watching your instructions.
Thanks!! Hope you have fun :)
I wanna live there!
Wow! Hugs, treen 🎄🎄🎄💕💕💕💕
This is my first time watching one of your videos. I’ve been in the Christmas mood and I’ve been watching Christmas dessert baking, gingerbread house making, and cookie decorating videos. Your video got recommended to me and when I saw the thumbnail with the icicles and the designs on the gingerbread house, I had to watch. I wasn’t expecting to see you sitting down and talking in front the camera about your whole process, but I enjoyed listening. I love the way you wrote in your script. I also found it interesting that you created your design digitally. You put so much thought and effort into making your house perfect and I’m just amazed by your process and the outcome. The house came out beautifully. The design is something I don’t normally see for gingerbread houses. The henna inspired design is so cool to see here. Keep up the great work.
So kind, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope it helped get you into the Christmas mood :)
@@thewonderingmind it definitely did! Thank you!
WOW! this is stunning! your piping skills are next level. I am definitely too lazy to make this myself, but I sure enjoyed watching you make one!
Thank you so much!!! ♥️♥️
LOL
Nice tutorial! Will definitely be trying this wish me luck!
Thank you!! I hope it goes really well :)
Beautiful 😍
Thank youuu ❤️❤️
This video is absolute perfection. Everything is presented in such a great way. The music is right, the cooking process is simple and clear with great advice. The tempo is great (I never get bored in fact I had to pause the video to leave this comment). Lastly, your eye for detail and perfectionism really show through + you have great style. Amazing!
Wow, thank you for such a kind compliment!! I appreciate you noticing all of that :) so glad you enjoyed and happy holidays!
Wow this is incredibly incredible, I want to make a gingerbread house with my 10-year-old daughter. I have a bad feeling we may be starting too late if it's to take to her gingerbread celebration on Friday afternoon, ugh.
Thank you so much!! You know, if you prepped and baked the pieces for her during the day or evening previous, she could probably have time to put it together and decorate :) or, you can always just roll out the dough, cut out gingerbread men or other shapes and decorate those! That’s a lot quicker and still very cute :)
beautiful ginger bread house I wish it was available as free download
Just bought your pdf...looks good and the video is fantastic--maybe include the youtube link in the PDF as well?
WOW!!!!❤
Salam your Ginger brad house ❤was beautiful 👌
Reminds me of Christine McConnell
Great info! I want to add a chimney. What do you suggest?
Hermoso😍
What a beautiful house! Could you write how many grams of butter and how many grams of flour did you add? thanks in advance❤️
Awesome can I eat it?
Beautiful! Thank you for your detailed instructions.
Thank you so much for posting this!!! I'm entering a gingerbread house contest, and this was really helpful! I was wondering, did you use all the gingerbread for the house, or was there some left over?
Best of luck to you!!! Hope you win :) I did have some left over at the end, even after messing up and remaking some pieces :)
@@thewonderingmind Thank you sooo much!!! I really enjoyed making my house and following your tutorial! It did get difficult, but I'm glad God gave me the ability to press through!
First of all your Gingerbread house is incredible!✨What can i use instead of cream of tartar? Lemon,baking soda or something else? Thank you!🌲✨
You know, I’ve never tried anything besides cream of tartar. There may be other options for royal icing out there in the internet that use other ingredients!!!
Curious what flour is best for Gingerbread dough ?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍😊❤
Всех с Наступающим Новым Годом!!! Будьте Счастливы!!! ❤❤❤
You mix the baking powder/ soda/ seasoning with wet ingredients instead of dry?
9:14 haha first time i've heard a cooking instruction say, "bake cookies until structurally sound." hahah
what's golden brown and structurally sound?
gingerbread house
müthiş oldu
Hi, I like your gingerbread house a lot,that’s a cake flour?
Just use all purpose flour as it is not a delicate cookie dough
Hi! I will soon be making a gingerbread house according to your recipe, but I don't know exactly how much butter to add. Could you tell me how many grams of butter there are? One more thing, can you replace the molasses with maple syrup? This ingredient simply isn't available in my country ;(
Not likely, molasses is very thick and viscous with a unique flavour. Maple syrup, although delicious is far too runny to be used as a substitution. Try googling a substitution for molasses, you may get lucky 😊
What did you use for the cresting on the roof?
The same royal icing! Just did the design on parchment, let it dry and carefully peeled it off.
I love itbirthday I have the bet house now, I love you
Do you have the Gingerbread house templates ? I'm planning to make a similar Gingerbread House this Christmas 💯. What a coincidence, I'm half Pakistani too... 😅
you skipped showing the creation of the roof cresting that magically appeared at 14:55.
in my country it's customary to "deck the halls" on Dec. 6th (and i gather you guys do it even earlier, late November) don't the royal icing's eggs get rancid in the meantime, is it advised not to eat the house or do you do it after the rest of the decoration or maybe even take eggs as fresh as possible? (after all we keep them outside of the fridge and the shell tends to be enough to keep them edible for a fair bit, at least before the expiration date)
Molasse is not really readily availible over here anymore so i'm considering making a hybrid with a culturally more significant (for me) speculoos recipe and maybe after i get the han of it experiment with other types of biscuits to play with different colours (in a tudor meets alsacian townhouse, or represent the traditional varigated brick houses of my region) are any solid biscuit interchangeable in this instance or is gingerbread the most practical support (speculoos would be a bit more buttery and somehow softer same with shortbreads) does the molasse help with the integrity of the piece or is it "just" tradition and flavour
edit :aaaand you answered my first question already,lol now eggs smells bad when oing off and i eat raw eggs every once in awhile (to be done at your own risk, fear of salmonella in eggs is not part of our common consiousness here, we tend to eat it in our german chocolate u.u)
Don’t recommend using a recipe for a cookie that’s soft & buttery since it won’t be able to support much weight, honestly if you don’t plan on eating it use a recipe that makes a hard dense cookie, Some people use different gingerbread recipes for houses ( so it doesn’t fall apart) and for eating so maybe try a harder cookie. Use pasteurised eggs or meringue powder instead, maybe you could heat it over a water bath which makes the royal icing creamier
Hi there! I would not recommend eating this, especially if you are leaving it out for a long time. If you don't want to use raw eggs, you can use meringue powder!
i don't celebrate Christmas but I'm obsessed with all those gingerbread houses ): yours is so amazing, beautiful work!
Thank you so much! They’re super fun, even just as a winter activity :)
Je me demande si cette recette peut etre mangé?
What program did you use for model the house?
Google Sketchup. It's very easy to use!!
Very beautiful house. I’ve done some but not as delicate as yours. Congratulations and Merry Christmas to you and yours. BTW, your husband was very, it’s very important to have someone to support you ❤
Thank you so much ❤️ oh he is a gem, always so supportive and the best partner 😊
