So my little sister wanted a dog theme cake. I started making a dog house out of fondant. I didnt think it through very well, though. I cut out pieces of fondant ( one for the front and back, one for the sides and the roof)...it looks like a gingerbread house kit. My problem now, is how do I attatch them together to "build" the house? If it comes right down to it, can I hot glue the fondant pieces together? I'd like it to be edible though.. here's a picture of my pieces...
I would say royal icing, just like a gingerbread house. VERY CUTE!
I made a castle from MMF just like that. I used royal and glued them together.

Tiptop57...no, there's not 
I didnt have any Tylose to make any gumpaste, so I thought I'd just try it without. Big boo-boo, huh? OOPS! Well, I did it a few days ago and I've left it sitting out and turning the pieces. They seem pretty sturdy... I used MMF fondant..do you think I should start over and add gumpaste?
my castle was MMF with fixodent added. I didn't have any problems.
Sarsi, your little house looks great. Please dont start over.
Would you consider putting something inside to help suport it until it's ready to go? Like a small box or tuppeware or something?
For next time.
Also for the gumpaste. I have been purchasing gumpaste powder which gives out about 2 cups of gumpaste for about $4.00 a bag. You might want to look for that, I purchase the one made by CK products out of fort wayne, IN.
I also have been adding flavoring to the gumpaste and to my MMF fondant. I have been using bubblegum flavor and it seems everyone wants to eat it.

Hope this helps.
Good Luck.
Hmmm....what about using cardboard cut just a little bit smaller than your peices and attaching them with royal to your pieces for support before assembling the doghouse? Or building a the doghouse out of cardboard and glueing the peices on? Though I know you said you want it to be edible. I'm just throwing out ideas b/c I don't want your awesome structure to collapse. I haven't tried drying straight fondant so I don't know how sturdy it will be.
oh my! what a great job you did. Your choice of color is great and all the decorations are awesome.
You made a really fun cake and you should be really proud.
My 5 year old, just said: "Woh, what a great cake, who was that for?"
you did good
Good Luck.
Thanks for all the nice comments!! I am open to helpful tips as to how I could do this better next time too... 
I was pretty proud of myself! Like most of my cakes, I had a time that I wanted to just cry and give up!! But, my husband said, "you're the only one who ever notices anything wrong with your cakes"...I know it's true, but I like everything to be PERFECT!!
gateaux- I'm trying to make your quote on your signature my moto... "My teacher says... "Always say your cake is perfect, you are the only one who thinks different!" " I love that!!
