A Snowy Gingerbread House
The decorated gingerbread house occupies the center of the scene beneath a layer of snow. Two dormer windows rise from the roof, a chimney stands on the right, and an icing-covered canopy shelters the front door. Small evergreen trees and shrubs grow on both sides of the building, with no other scenery behind them.
How Gingerbread Houses Hold Their Shape
Gingerbread used for building is usually baked firmer than soft gingerbread cookies so that walls and roof pieces can support one another. Thick icing acts as an edible adhesive between the separate pieces. Dormer windows are small roof structures that project outward and allow light into an upper room in a real house.
Colors of Real Gingerbread Houses
- Baked gingerbread walls: golden brown to deep brown
- Icing decorations: usually white, though food coloring can produce many shades
- Snow: white, sometimes appearing pale blue in shadow
- Evergreen trees: dark green or blue-green with brown trunks
- Window glass: clear, reflecting blue-gray daylight or warm yellow indoor light
