"The most beautiful gingerbread 2011" by Õhtuleht [link]
Results: nothing. I cant belive the winner was decided through how high the pics were rated... I mean... It was possible to give multiple votes for yourself and rate down others. :<
Size: the tray ⌀30cm, height to horns 19cm
Time: ~68 hours during 2 weeks + 4 hours on the barely noticable clock drawing on the tray
Ingredients:
~600g gingerbread
~200g caramel candy
~300g glaze
+crushed peanuts and chocolate sprinkles
eyes are made of crushed blue M&M's

Honestly... I feel a bit guilty for having to compete in the 11-18 year old category... D: I mean... The things what a 11 year old and 18 year old make isnt that... Comparable. :/

Yeaa.... So THIS is what Ive been keeping myself busy with for the last two weeks.

Wanted to make sth different from all the regular over-glazed ginger houses.

Basically, this is made out of lil ginger cubes and sticked together with *lotsandlotsandlots* of CARAMEL! + filled with cocoa glaze. First made it in three bigger parts and then connected them together with *hellofalotmore* caramel. Thats why the body is so... square-ish. :I

Mmm~ The decorating part was my favorite~ Can you tell? :D

Details~

Happy Dragons Year!
