Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Fox Run Ten Piece Gingerbread House Cookie Cutter Bake Set
Customer Review: Very poor product,
Summary: 1 Stars
We wasted a lot of time on this before the house collapsed. Let's start with the gingerbread recipe itself. I decided to make it figuring that it would make enough for this particular house. It's a very poorly-written recipe (ignorant of such basics as recipe ingredients are listed in the order in which they are used). Nevertheless, I was able to fix it on the fly and the pieces were fine. Well, except for the fact that the cutters are not square and the gingerbread bakes up with bowed edges rather than straight. This is, I believe, the core of the failer of this item.
Ok, next, the icing recipe. Unworkable in my opinion. As written, it creates such a stiff icing that you cannot get it out of your pastry bag; in fact it split mine. I tried to loosen it up then it was too loose. I ended up making royal icing which was ok but not stiff enough. But it allowed me to assemble the house and my daughter then spent an hour adding the candy only to have the roof slide off and the walls cave in. Adding up the time I spent making the gingerbread, making the icing (three times) and my daughter decorating, we wasted a lot of time. Plus it was disappointing to my daughter.
In short: don't buy this.

The Fox Run 10 piece gingerbread house cookie cutter set includes tin plated reusable cutters to cut out perfect shapes. It also includes forms, cardboard base and instructions to make your own perfect gingerbread house. A great activity during the winter holidays.This complete gingerbread house baking set puts IKEA to shame--it has everything needed to assemble an edible domicile, with easy-to-follow instructions written in plain English to boot! The cookie-cutter-style forms make it easy to get the right sized pieces for the construction project, so you don't have to worry about measuring rolled-out dough and cutting walls. The gingerbread and icing recipes are very easy to follow, with handy tips, such as rolling out the gingerbread directly on the cookie sheets, which eliminates the stretching and sticking that almost always occurs when moving cut cookies from counter to cookie sheet. With this easy-to-use kit, you could even become a contractor and farm this job out to your kids! --Julija Gelazis
