Wow, that's quite a challenge.

When I first saw the images, I thought that it would make a tasty gingerbread house tapedshut.gif

I did, too, Jan...but, they want a very large cake. What if I make a large sheet cake as the grass, etc., and make the building out of Rice Krispie Treats??

on duff , geoff did a big house and if i recall he stacked several sheets and carved it and then made the roof out of gumpaste

Doug did a template sketch for someone who needed to do a covered porch a couple months ago too- he would be a good one to ask.
