If you wanted a small one you could bake a 9x13 and make that the bottom and then use fondant to make a lid.

I wonder if you could cover graham crackers with fondant to create a lid. Glue the pieces of graham cracker together with royal icing to create the box top and then cover it in fondant.

Anan, that idea was from making gingerbread houses and using royal icing as my glue...I figured graham crackers are alot easier and I make graham cracker houses now because they are quicker than doing all that baking......I glue them togther, wait for them to dry and then the kids decorate.

How about making a sugar mold for the lid?
