The roof of your gingerbread house offers a huge space for decorating and always captures attention at first glance. Therefore, decorate it in a way that reflects your personal style and, most importantly, with techniques you've already mastered.
You can decorate the roof with simple motifs, different types of lace, white embroidery, or the madeira technique. Everything depends on the overall composition and look of your gingerbread house.
Just like the other parts, let the decorated roof dry properly before assembly. Remember, the richer the decoration, the longer the drying time.

Tip for you
On a larger gingerbread house roof, you can also glue small gingerbread pieces that can then be "peeled off." This popular feature, which little sweet-lovers especially appreciate, will give your gingerbread house a playful and fairytale dimension.
