Gingerbread House Shopping List

Print off this handy list before heading out to your local grocery store.  You'll find all of the ingredients you'll need to decorate your festive gingerbread house.

You'll need royal icing and a board for your gingerbread house.  We recommend either making your icing homemade or picking up some Royal Icing Mix at the store.  A Cake board or cardbaord covered in foil work well as a base for the house and can be purchased or made.
