This video might be 3 years old but nonetheless it’s hands down the *BEST* one available online for learning Gingerbread decorating tips — and I loved the fact that Cathy just got straight to the point! I hate when people babble on and on…

Not only did I appreciate every single technique on how to decorate, but I also appreciated all of the suggested tools and plan to purchase them all for my Gingerbread decorating party.

Thank you. 🥰

I'm sorry, you only have 2.5k with a perfectly modern clean kitchen, great camera, and clean gingerbread with amazing colours and embellishments. You are very underrated and your ideas are extremely helpful such as separate decorations until they harden and then just place them on with royal icing and I love the energy; very helpful

This is the best Wilton video! Some of the tutorial videos make me so bored, but not this one!

Hi I love how you did your Gingerbread lighthouse

[tranvo]

My family has a ginger bread house decorating contest with all the cousins every year on Christmas Eve, we’re very competitive, so I’m here early to get started

[litermatka]

That's just perfect! We love your houses, they are super beautiful!

Well I wish I had seen this before making a fool of myself

Great video and some really nice ideas that I never thought of about Christmas trees one thing I’ve always done is I decorate the sides and the roof of the house before assembling then everything is on a flat surface and it’s much easier to pipe

I would love a text overlay that says which tip she's using at the time. For reference: Door outline round #2. Wreath: star tips #16, 18, 21 and 199. Garland: #3. Roof garland #16. Base border #5. Zigzag roof #5. Classic tree #18 on cone.

Thank you for posting this. I was able to follow this to make a gingerbread Christmas crackhouse. The icing tip mentioned was perfect for the graffiti

[mew_and_espurr]
