If you have always wanted to learn how to construct a gingerbread house or if you are looking to take your baking and decorating skills to the next level, you will have the opportunity to do so on Saturday, November 22nd at the Rotch-Jones-Duff House and Garden Museum at the Gingerbread House Demonstration at 9:30 a.m.
Katherine Mullins, proprietor of the Gingerbread House Bakery in Whitman, will offer a program that is designed for both the budding novice and the experienced gingerbread “architect.” She will share a lifetime of experience in this art form and demonstrate how the pros do it, including tips about the best dough to use in construction, to artful finishing touches that add a real wow factor.
In this 1.5 hour class, Katherine will construct a house, sleigh and Santa as well as demonstrate techniques using royal icing and chocolate for “gluing.” Take home a booklet with dough, icing and cookie recipes and an assortment of patterns. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged, as seating is limited. The fee is $14.00 for RJD members, $18.00 for non-members.
