Why, it wouldn't be Creepmas without a Ginger Dead house, now would it? This years model was made from a Haribo kit I purchased after Christmas in 2019. Stale was not the word - downright petrified more like. The gummy bears that came with the kit were so hard they could have been fired out of a gun. However, the gingerbread was unbroken and usable as was the icing. It was a very simple kit to put together. As I have said in the past, I would never eat this skanky frankenfood anyway so it doesn't matter how ancient it is.
Bone and skull siding and large knives, cleavers and axes give 2021 model it's unique essence.
It will go on display for the guests at this years Creepmas dinner party, the social event of the season.
If anything, its fossilized condition makes it all the more Creepmassy. It's probably sturdy enough to stand for years.
ReplyDeleteThese things are sturdy. That royal icing sets up like cement.
DeleteIt looks spooktacular!
ReplyDeleteThanks - I hope it gets you in the Holiday spirit.
DeleteYou did a horrifyingly amazing job! Great use of bones, knives and blood. And its "skanky frankenfood" nature is the scariest thing of all, LOL!
ReplyDeleteYep - there was not much I could pronounce in the ingredient profile.
DeleteWe had some ginger bread houses around here for yearssssss. They don't degrade. When the kids were finally gone so were the GBH's.
ReplyDelete'Tis the season to be spooky and Hansel and Gretel took a turn to the dark(er) side.
ReplyDeleteThey probably would not have been tempted by this yucky skanky old gingerdead!
