Here are 24 wonderful gingerbread projects to make - from a medieval castle and gilded crown to a woodcutter's cottage and a gingerbread Christmas tree. Whether decorated with piped icing, gold leaf paint or tiny candles, the irresistible projects taste as delightful as they look. Gingerbread is tasty, fun and very versatile; there are light and dark gingerbreads, chocolate gingerbread and even gingerbread laden with fruits, nuts and candies.
This delightful book contains all the traditional gingerbread recipes but is also a highly original collection of gingerbread castles, animals, cottages and cakes to create for Christmas, birthday parties and as gifts for children and adults throughout the year. Using simple techniques, the projects are easy to construct, and each stage is shown step-by-step.
Beautiful finished photographs make this charming cooking-and craft book a classic for cake decorators, crafters and children of all ages.
