Hello Everyone!

I will be making an entry for the (Click) SANRIO YUMMIES CONTEST! you may click on that link or copy & paste this into your browser:http://blog.hellokitty.com/sanrio_yummiesFor my entry, I will be making: *DRUM ROLL* a Hello Kitty Gingerbread House!!!

I shall kittify my easy-make gingerbread house!

Ok… It’s not REALLY made out of gingerbread… But it’s an easy way to make a gingerbread house for the Holidays!

What you will need:
-Sweetened Crackers
-Royal Icing
-CANDY!!!!
-Sprinkles (Optional)
-Gel icing (Optional)
-Anything you want for your house!!!! (Optional)

ROYAL ICING:
Ok, if you want, you may make the icing yourself if you want.

INGREDIENTS
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, stir together confectioners’ sugar and milk until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until icing is smooth and glossy. If icing is too thick, add more corn syrup.

Ok, now the fun part!

Gather your sweetened crackers & build your house however you like. Dip the sweetened crackers into the royal icing to put them together.

JUST LIKE THIS!

Then start building them however you like!

Once your satisfied with your house, let the icing harden for a while. Then when you think it’s finished, use all the left over icing to stick candy on!!!!!!

YAY!!!!
Put as much candy you want! YUM!!!

Ok, Now, to kittify your house!

Use the left over icing to draw a simple outline of Hellokitty’s face. Then color it in with the icing. Then use a yellow jelly bean for the nose, use 2 candies of your choice for the eyes & sprinkle sprinkles for the whiskers on icing. For the bow, I used 2 jelly beans for the outside of the bow & another jelly like candy for the centre. You may use whatever you like for the bow!

Here is a photo of what I did for it!

If you want, you may use icing sugar for the snow! Just sift it over your house with wet icing.

This year, my house is kind of simple… It’s not very fancy as it was last year…
But this ones my best one I’ve made! Because there is Hellokitty!! hehe… LOL

HAVE FUN MAKING YOUR HOUSE!!!

My brothers went crazy for the candy… :S Here are some photos of their houses!

Here is my brother’s house Lyndon.

Here is my other brother Daniel’s.

Then here is my last brother’s house, Micah.

I will be eating it on Christmas day! YAY! I’m also sad I have to eat it… Because it was such a nice house… the best one I’ve made so far!!! I can’t wait!

Thanks for reading! I hope I can win the contest! & Good Luck to Everyone who has submitted to the SANRIO YUMMIES CONTEST!
