For best results, use high-quality spices for a richer flavor. Ensure the gingerbread pieces are completely cool before assembling to prevent the icing from melting. If the royal icing is too thick, add a tiny amount of water, one teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. Get creative with your decorations! Use a variety of candies, sprinkles, and edible glitter to personalize your gingerbread house. Store your finished gingerbread house in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
