Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 10 (last day)

Hello mini friends!

It is officially Christmas day!  Time for our last, but not least, Gingerbread House Countdown post!  I have saved my favorite gingerbread house for last!!!

On this beautiful gingerbread house, we have a pretty gingerbread roof with white icing and delicious cherry and mint chocolate balls on top!  Look a bit farther down, now we have delicious green, white and red candy canes on the ground place around the walkway.  You can also find some candy Christmas tree decorations on the right side of the gingerbread house!  Keep exploring!  There is a chocolate peppermint pathway and a chocolate & golden chocolate ball door!  And to top it all off, there is a beautiful red, green, and white peppermint heart right above the door!

Have a Very Merry Christmas!  Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 9

Hello mini friends & Merry Christmas eve!

Only one day left of the Gingerbread House Countdown sadly.  But luckily, we have a few extra gingerbread houses to be posted today & tomorrow!

Well today we have our very first all chocolate gingerbread house!  I made it by covering the gingerbread house with beautiful white icing, adding chocolate swirls on the roof and above the chocolate door, placing chocolate candy canes on the ground, making chocolate windows, having a chocolate pathway, and lastly, making a chocolate gingerbread man!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 8

Hello mini friends!

Can't believe it, only 2 days left until Christmas!

On this gingerbread house, I covered the walls, middle of the roof, and ground with white icing, and instead covered the roof with sparkly sugar crystals, which sadly are not edible. After that, I covered the roof with some green and white peppermint sticks and covered the ground with green & white peppermint candies and candy canes. Then, I added a green mint door and painted icing across it to make it a window looking door! Finally, I just made a few swirls with the white icing and added a lemon candy above the door!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 7

Hello mini friends!

The 7th day of our countdown already!  Only 3 days left so we might have to post an extra gingerbread house or two for Christmas & Christmas eve!  But lets save that for later!  Gingerbread house time!

On this gingerbread house I iced the ground, roof and walls with beautiful white icing.  I also used white icing to draw the windows. Next, I added candy canes surrounded by a chocolate pathway.  I wonder if candy canes are similar to bushes and small trees for gingerbread people . . . Next, I made a little red, white and green peppermint tree with gold candies in the back.  Finally, I added a beautiful wreath above the door!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 6

Hello mini friends!

Yes!  It is time for day 6 of our gingerbread house countdown!

Just another pretty green peppermint except for a few even more pretty decorations!  I gave the house a green peppermint border!  Next, I added green chocolate balls on the ground on the sides and on the roof.  After that, I made a green peppermint walkway, along with adding a chocolate door with icing!  Finally, I added two cute gingerbread men on the side and a Christmas tree hanging right above the door!  The measurements of this house was a bit off, but with such cute decorations, it is barely noticeable!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 5

Hello mini friends!

Already day 5 of the countdown?  Christmas is coming so soon!  It is time for another gingerbread house!

This very special gingerbread house is a bit more colorful!  We start off with just white icing drizzled on the house, then a bit more colors come in when some golden candy balls get added to the top!  Oh no!  It is raining lime & strawberry flavored ribbon candy!  Run inside!

Now some ribbon candy has been added to the ground and middle of the very top of the gingerbread house!  All that was left to add was a chocolate bar door and a beautiful red star!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 4

Hello mini friends!

Wow! It is already day 4 of our gingerbread house countdown!  Well lets get onto it!

Each and every gingerbread house I make is normally a bit different!  Well today we have a gingerbread house, with white icing covering the sides and green & white peppermints for the windows!  I added some green mint candy balls on the roof of the house and the border.  After that, you can see a beautiful golden candy doorstep, green mint door, and a beautiful lemon flavored candy star right above the door!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown Day 3

Hello mini friends!

It is officially day 3 of our Gingerbread house countdown!  Each day even prettier gingerbread houses are posted!

On this gingerbread house, I did a bit of an almost diamond looking print on the roof with the way I drizzled the icing, and put some delicious gold candies on top!  I also added a snowy looking type of icing onto the ground.  I then decorated it with a chocolate & peppermint walkway.  Along with also adding green, red and white candy canes on the side.  Finally, to top it all off, I made some beautiful super small Christmas trees!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Countdown - Day 2

Hello mini friends!

It is the second day of our gingerbread house countdown, and today I bring you a mini 1:12 scale gingerbread house!

Just from the picture below, you can probably tell that it is mostly all peppermint flavored!  If only this was real food & edible!  But anyways, I iced the gingerbread house with white icing.  Next, I added peppermint sticks, candy canes, and red velvet sprinkles!  I also added a cute little snowflake right above the chocolate door & chocolate walkway.

Hope you enjoy!

Candy Canes!

Hello mini friends!

A few weeks ago I started working on some miniature candy canes!  Beware! They are not edible!

Took me a few hours to make but they were pretty simple!   I twisted red & white clay together!  Once I had a super long clay peppermint stick, I sliced it into separate pieces.  I then slightly bent the ends of the now-small clay peppermint sticks to give it a cane shape!  The candy canes have now been awarded their "Official Candy Cane badge!"  *Only available for candy canes that have trained at the SweetPeaToys Miniatures Candy Cane Bakery!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread House Christmas Countdown - Day 1

Hello mini friends!

Today I'm super happy to share with you a new countdown I will be doing to lead up to Christmas!

It is a gingerbread house Christmas countdown!  Since I have recently made many gingerbread houses that have not been posted, what better way to celebrate than to post a new house daily?  Well, it is time for Gingerbread House Christmas Countdown Day 1!

For this gingerbread house, I have added some delicious creamy white peppermint flavored icing on the roof, decorated the windows, doors and also sprinkled some on the ground.  I also used brown clay to make the adorable chocolate door.  Then, I decorated the top with pretty gold (but still non edible) candy!  And finally, I added some super mini candy canes & peppermint sticks!

Hope you enjoy!

Red Star Reindeer Cake

Hello mini friends!

Christmas in coming super soon and, today I'm excited to show you all another one of my holiday cakes!  Here today with us is a beautiful red velvet cake, with reindeers on the side, white icing on top, and pretty red stars to top it off!  I also added a few pretty red sprinkles!  It is a perfect sized cake for Barbie!

Make sure to check back daily since I will be posting one (or more) posts daily as a countdown leading up to Christmas!

Hope you enjoy!

Holiday Ribbon Candy

Hello mini friends!

Today I'm so excited to show you all some new ribbon candy I recently made!

While getting ready for the holidays, delicious ribbon candy just looks so pretty!  Because of this, I just had to make some in mini size!

I basically just used some colorful clay colors, including red, white, and green clay. I mixed the different clay colors together and bunched up the clay.  It was finally finished!

These took many hours to make but turned out so pretty!

Hope you enjoy!

Gingerbread Spice Cakes

Hi mini friends!

Lately I have been working on tons of brand new holiday cakes and so far, they seem to be turning out great!

These aren't all of my new holiday cakes, but a few!  So here today with us are four new gingerbread spice cakes I made a few days ago!

Once I mixed the perfect spice color with my polymer clay, I just shaped them into a cake shape. I then iced outside of the cakes with white liquid clay. To add a final touch, I added a decoration on the tops of each cake.  One cake has gingerbread star cookies on top, another has some gingerbread men on top, then another has some gingerbread tree cookies on top and the final one has a few gingerbread sprinkles on top.

They turned out really pretty.  You can see in the picture that I made two cakes in 1:6 scale, one in 1:12 scale, and one in 1:24 scale.  Personally, I have to admit the 1:24 scale cake is my favorite out of all of them.  It is so tiny and cute!

Hope you enjoy!
