Wanted to do something whimsical this year. I used kisses, gum drops, chocolate candy drops, candy canes and fondant. Smoke stacks made of rock candy. Windows are gel sheets. The weather vanes on top of turret and front roof are make from rice paper, color printed on edible food color printer, then cut with Cricut machine. The court yard has gingerbread children ice skating and others watching from the balconies.
