This is our 20th year using GingerBread By Design (and its original website) patterns. We decided on the Gable design, increasing pattern size by 2x. We used the 3rd layout choosing to caddie corner the two houses. We used fondant for the stone lined windows, a candy chocolate rock path, and lots of gingerbread men details. The glass as always is poured boiled sugar/corn syrup which we feel makes the warmest glow with the 100 fairy lights. The roof is made with Bordeaux cookies and jimmies.
