Product recommendation
One ginger cake will make 2-3 houses.
Preparation steps
1.
To make the house cut a piece of cake approx. 2 cm long. On the short side cut both corners off so that a point is formed in the middle for the "roof".
2.
Sieve approx. 2/3 of the icing sugar into a bowl and mix with the lemon juice until and thick glaze is formed. Brush the icing all over the house-shaped cake.
3.
Add enough of the remaining icing sugar to the glaze so that it becomes as thick as possible. Place this into a piping bag (or a freezer bag with the corner cut off) and use it to decorate the house with "icicles" etc.
4.
Use the sweets to create roof tiles, a chimney, doors, windows etc in the still wet icing sugar. You can also do this using coloured icing sugar.
5.
Let the house dry at room temperature.
