Customer Reviews

I've always loved gingerbread houses but found kits hard to assemble or lacking in quality ingredients. Not this Create A Treat kit! My family makes it a tradition now to decorate these easy-to-construct houses each Christmas. The gingerbread pieces fit together perfectly with the icing and stay sturdy. My daughter Hannah, who is only 6, was able to build her own house with just a little help reaching the higher places. We also loved all the candy, especially the variety of gumdrops to decorate with. Hannah gave her house gumdrop windows while I used licorice for a shutter effect. With goodies like Hershey kisses and peppermints, you can get really creative! The end result was gorgeous and tasted even better. This is a wonderful family activity I'd recommend for making memories. Just be sure to take lots of pictures before eating your handmade creation!

I bought this kit for my son's birthday party and all the kids had an absolute blast decorating their own gingerbread houses. The pre-made houses were so easy for small hands to assemble and sturdy enough that they didn't immediately fall apart. The royal icing adhered the house pieces nicely. The best part was decorating - with mini marshmallows, gumdrops, candy canes and more, they could let their creativity go wild! Lots of laughing, smiling faces. The parents even joined in. I was amazed by how unique each child's finished house looked. And tasty too! This is the perfect bonding activity for families or kids parties. Highly recommended to create edible works of art and memories. Just be prepared to provide lots of napkins!

For a fun adult craft night, I picked up this gingerbread house kit and it exceeded expectations! The pre-baked gingerbread smells and tastes so nostalgic. Our group had a great time assembling the houses like puzzles before unleashing our creativity with the decorations. It was a great low-key activity with holiday music playing in the background. Since the kit includes enough icing and plenty of candy pieces, we had lots of supplies to add unique touches to each creation. I used gumdrops, M&Ms, and chocolate sprinkles while others tried peppermints, pretzel sticks, and more. The end results looked worthy of a magazine cover! And taking photos of our houses was just as fun. This is a wonderful kit for some easy holiday cheer you can eat. A sweet treat for Christmas or any festive gathering!

My wife loves gingerbread houses so I purchased this kit to surprise her. The materials were really high quality - thick durable gingerbread, tasty icing, and name brand candy decorations. The instructions made assembly a breeze. We had a great date night decorating our masterpieces together. What I really loved was how much fun my wife had unleashing her creativity on her own house, and mine too! She used different candies to make windows, pathways, wreaths etc. Seeing her proud smile when we finished was priceless. And these houses didn't just look good, they tasted amazing as well which isn't always the case with these kits. Sweet, spicy, and straight from the oven flavorful. This is definitely a kit I would recommend. It provided an evening of laughter, quality time together and delicious treats all from one purchase!

I ordered this kit for a holiday gingerbread decorating party and it was perfect! Easy to follow instructions and high quality ingredients. The pre-made gingerbread went together so quickly that we had plenty of time for the fun decorating. With 4 different houses, we split into teams and had a friendly decorating contest. We got really creative seeing what candies and icing we could combine for the best effects. One team even made stained glass windows with Starburst! In the end all our houses came out looking adorable. After taking tons of pictures, we enjoyed eating our sugary creations. With yummy gingerbread, candy galore and an evening spent laughing and bonding, this kit provided the quintessential holiday experience. A sweet treat for Christmas or any festive gathering with family or friends!
