Gingerbread House kit [Set of 4] DIY Gingerbread House, Fun Holiday Activity for Kids, Ease Crafted Grooves Decor Kit of 2 Houses/4 ppl/Fondant/Snowflakes/Candies/Jellies/Beads/Buttons/Tray 60 Pcs Set

These were packaged so nicely..well made and perfect size. I bought 6 of them for 4-35yo. I used my own egg white and powder sugar mixture for glue and snow effect of the houses. I put them together first, then next day decorated. The kits came with many adorable decorations and I added a bunch of my own. I will definately buy these next year!

Extremely embarrassed as this was to be a Family fun event that would involve my three Grandchildren. All candy, Icons, fun items to add to the ginger bread houses were all "totally gross and moldy" per the childrens father. They had to throw everything out and decorate it with their own frosting. I will never use this seller or this brand name every again. Very embarrassed and sad.

First time ever buying gingerbread house kits. I bought two - one each for my 4 & 7 year old grandkids. I was worried it would arrive broken, but all pieces were intact. Grandkids started building these last night and finished them this morning. Grampy did help the 4 year old but the 7 year old did hers all by herself. They came out awesome! The main thing is they had a blast assembling and decorating their own gingerbread houses! The key to them staying together and not falling apart is to be very patient. Don’t expect to be able to complete this in an hour or two. Decorate all the cookies first and allow time to dry, then put the sides and roof pieces on, and then let everything sit and dry. It takes some time but so worth it in the end! This will be an annual tradition because the kids loved it so much!

Check your dimensions. These are smallHouses not full size. Never enough icing to decorate like the images on the packaging. WellMade. Held up In travel. Cute candy accessories

The two small houses are just as described AND better than I expected. The instructions are simple. The decorations are plentiful and colorful. We plan to use left over Halloween goodies to add paving stones and other colors. The small Santa is a delightful touch. We plan to make a "gnome village" on Thanksgiving Day for the little ones to take home. Will know then if the frosting is tough enough to hold them together. I did order Royal Frosting Mix just in case we need more snow. Made in USA.

This is a horrible item. The icing isn’t even white and it said easy to use icing but it came with no thin nozzle so we used tooth pics.There wasn’t enough icing eitherZero stars!

It is as advertised. Just be aware the houses themselves are small, but they are advertised for children as "learn how to" kits, so it is kind of appropriate. I'm an adult and got it because I thought the tracing lines would be helpful! Haha!

This kit was in the mid-price range of the three kits I tried. This made two nice sized, reasonably easy to assemble and decorate houses. No broken pieces (both kits in this brand were extremely well packaged - wrapped pieces, then wrapped all together, then wrapped in bubble wrap and fit nicely into the box - neither squished nor so loose as to rattle around). I ordered three of these kits and there was not a single break or broken piece. The icing is perfect for sticking - doesn't dry so quickly you can't work with it, but dries quickly enough you don't need to prop anything up - press for around 20 seconds and you can move to the next part. Based on experience I let it dry for about twenty minutes before attaching the roof, I can't swear that's necessary for this kit, but once things start to fall apart they are much harder to get back together!I would say this kit is ideal for the 10-14 year old range or the adult who wants to do one but not invest an entire afternoon in decorating. As a former teenager myself, I'd have loved to have had the canvas of the larger house to obsess over, but this one is reasonable for most. For the littlest kids, I'd stick with the slightly smaller but much cheaper house to the far left (reviewed elsewhere - red velvet, supposedly valentines day).In the attached picture the middle house is one of the ones from this kit. (far left is the cheaper red velvet one and far right is the more expensive BIG house from this same brand)
