Anybody have any good ideas for decorating a gingerbread house? Every year my fiance and I do one for Easter, Halloween, and Christmas. Running out of new ideas lol...

    Use protein powder as snow.

    Since it's for Easter, why not decorate it like a rabbit burrow?
    - Grass covering the roof, and maybe the sides. Mix green food colouring into shredded coconut for a delicious grass-like decoration.
    - A marshmallow or chocolate bunny standing in the doorway
    - A pathway with 'cobblestones' made of pastel, candy-shelled mini eggs
    - A fence around the house made of wafer straws, cut to size (image below, in case 'wafer straws' is not the right term.)

    Good luck, and please post a photo of whatever you decide to make!
