Project Notes
- Bake sheets of construction gingerbread using a recipe of your choosing. There’s plenty of great options online but be sure you’re using one meant for constructing with… not for eating (necessarily). I rolled sheets for the base layers to a uniform 1/4″ thickness and sheets for top layers to a uniform 1/8″ thickness.
- Allow sheet to cool on a FLAT SURFACE so that they are as flat as possible before laser cutting.
- Start by laser cutting the base pieces. Laser settings will vary based on your gingerbread recipe and laser cutter but I ended up needing to use relatively high settings to get a clean cut.
- Assemble small sections of the gingerbread house at a time and let it overnight.
- Put each section together once royal icing has hardened… and tah dah!
