hot glue might be good but it may not hold as well as royal icing i guess but as I said in the previous reply you can glue it together with royal icing and hold it tight with cans put on inside and out of the side wall pieces so you don't have to hold them up and then no worries if you wanna eat or give it away and it can all be edible and i think just as sturdy and better but like I explained in previous email I must set undisturbed for royal icing to set overnight just a foot note depending on how much I glue together in actual sides and roofs it may take awhile this is not a one day project to glue it all and i suggest you take it slowly and you will get much better results patience is needed to do this craft and sometime I have to re make a pieces as it is too brittle or thin and is **** or will crack.   When you roll out your gingerbread dough be careful not to create air bubbles as they will weaken and create cracks.  good luck
