Gingerbread - Tumblr Posts
BEHOLD! This year's gingerbread creation: Ginger the Octopus!
I bought a pepakura pattern from Papercraftfreakshop on Etsy (link here) and used that as a base, even though I had to adapt it a bit due to me making it in ... well, gingerbread.
The whole thing is 100% edible, and made out of gingerbread, icing (or is it called frosting?) and small chocolate candies only.
It has taken me ... AGES. Approximately about 30-40 hours? (just baking the pieces, one by one, took 15 hours over a weekend) But worth it. Look at her. She's so pretty.
(For progess shots and exclamation of regret, see here)

I hope everyone has a good time and take care (even if you don‘t celebrate!!)
As a bonding activity, the new members of my frat built Halloween gingerbread houses. We made one out of graham crackers because I don't eat palm oil and the cookies used for the other house had palm oil in them.
