Why not just opt for a pre-made version? Nobody will notice.
Has anyone ever successfully crafted a gingerbread house that actually stands? Attempting to assemble cookie pieces into a sturdy structure with only some overly sticky icing for support seems like a recipe for disaster. Who thought this was a brilliant idea? If you involve kids in the construction process, you might as well call it quits. Just munch on the cookies instead; that’s far more enjoyable.
The internet excels at uniting us through shared experiences, and collectively failing at gingerbread house construction is a prime example. Twitter is currently flooded with amusing gingerbread house fails that are sure to brighten your day.
Take this example: the house collapsed when the creator attempted to add gumdrop decorations and applied too much pressure. Don’t worry, we’ve all experienced that moment.
Another builder doesn’t specify why her creation fell apart, but it’s evident there’s an excessive amount of icing, likely causing a weight issue. Achieving the perfect balance of just enough icing to hold the pieces together without overloading them is basically a science project, to be honest.
If Twitter is accurate, it appears that hardly anyone can successfully construct a gingerbread house. Thankfully, there are creative ways to rescue a failed gingerbread project. You could introduce a dinosaur into the scene (which is pure genius, by the way). Alternatively, you could stage a little vandalism to divert attention from your less-than-stellar cookie architecture. Or, the simplest solution: just eat the evidence.
Clearly, gingerbread houses are much trickier than they seem. That’s why pre-assembled kits are available for those who want to skip the stress of construction. And if you want to tell everyone that you handcrafted it, go ahead—we won’t spill the beans.
