Every year, they have a gingerbread house building competition at the architecture museum. This was my favorite entry. Hey, just because you accidently burn your house, that’s no reason to drop out of the contest! Work with it!

Infiltrating Sweden one cinnamon bun at a time
Interesting idea!
To go for the win, the icing tubes should have come back out and added about ten firemen’s hats to those gingerbread men.
That would have been perfect! When I burn my gingerbread house, that’s what I’m doing. 🙂
You know what would be hysterical? Make a bunch of gingerbread deck chairs like they have on the beach in Florida, pipe bright icing colors down them in stripes for authenticity, and then put a slightly burned gingerbread man or woman in a frosting bathing suit on each one. Ginger-tourists!
Excellent! So many ideas with gingerbread disasters. And with the way I bake, I need all I can get!
