Gingerbread house

Description

Before you bake the gingerbread house I had to collect a lot of information. As this is my first experience in this case is not simple. For a start, I realized that it is not necessary to make it great for beginners "bakers" better to avoid the huge sizes. The question then became how to make icing and how to paint, as I wanted to add a little color. This work is quite painstaking, but worth it. When assembling the parts immediately lifted the mood of everyone around, the kids get bombarded with questions. Begin to imagine who lives there, for whom the house is built, in General impressions enough. Even getting a little believe in Santa Claus and the snow maiden, the feeling is beyond words. In General, positive sea, and when the kids will break it and eat I will remove everything on video. Also I want to note that the dough recipe is on our channel. I wish you inspiration and of course happiness in the New year! Pleasant to you of viewing!
