I wish the guggenheim had color pictures. I love the palm beach house, and that they just used a solid bar of pink chocolate as the door, it translates so well

That went from wow and haha, never in a million years could I to hmm . . . maybe with a lot patience and do-overs . . . .
Or I could just let my niece cover the gingerbread with M&Ms, hard candies, fragments of candy canes, and Andes candies like we usually do.

This is very timely for me, because we're having our annual gingerbread house competition and work and I need to defend my first place title. Thanks!

I like the idea of playing with food, but is there a savory version? Cha siu baohaus?

These are fun, but nothing will top the gingerbread Hogwarts (and dragon, whomping willow, flying car, etc) I saw a free years ago. I'd love to see another themed one, where chefs and architects are all working on a theme together.

ArkDes museum in Stockholm has an annual gingerbread house contest. This year's entries are kind of a mixed bag, with volcanoes way over represented.
