Honey, sugar, margarine heat until the sugar has dissolved. Ground not bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cool.

In the honey mass add egg and then flour (1/2 part), cocoa, cinnamon, baking powder. The rest of the flour to domeshivat gradually, the batter should be thick and elastic. Flour may take less or slightly more than specified. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and put into the fridge for a day.

The next day take the dough, roll out and cut parts of the box template. Bake in preheated oven to 150 degrees for about 10 minutes.

Here such turned out we blanks. Because free time for me a little, paint will be the next day.

The next day, coloring the details with frosting. Frosting: beat the whites into foam and gradually add the icing sugar, continuing to whisk by hand, then add starch and lemon juice.

Collect boxes with glaze.

Our caskets ready. From this number of products I got 3 boxes. I showed You 2 options boxes. At first it may seem that you need to spend a lot of time on the production boxes, but if you split the process in 3 days (each day a little less than an hour), then everything will be easy and relaxed :-)

Due to numerous requests added the episode about decorating the side walls of the rectangular box. ;-) First, draw a grid (it is necessary that the mesh has dried), and then draw the squares adding a little of the glaze according to your sketches. :-)
