This video by The Sugar Scoop provides a time-lapse video on How to decorate an Artisan Gingerbread House.



Hi Y’all! I’m Shelby Bower and I am a cake and sugar artist. I make fun cake videos and I post my creations every Wednesday at 2:00pm CST. I have been a cake artist for a LONG LONG time now and I make all sorts of cakes! Huge dropdead gorgeous wedding cakes, crazy sculpted cakes, little cute painted cakes, cake pops, painted cookies, all types of cookies really! I love making oversized cookies, isomalt creations, even the earth! whatever you can dream up I can make it out of cake! I use cake, isomalt, sugar, candy, fondant, cookies, buttercream (American buttercream is my favorite) royal icing, sprinkles… I even have a special recipe that uses flax seed (eww gross) to make my crazy cake creations.

In this video: Realistic gingerbread house for Christmas decorated by Sugar Artist, Shelby Bower from Shelby Elizabeth Cakes. Our gingerbread house is made from all gingerbread with no supports. We only use royal icing to glue the structure together. The outside of the house is painted with food coloring to replicate stone, vines and more! Piping is used to make realistic vine leaves and snow.
