Sugar Cube House

Sugar cubes and royal icing serve as the bricks and mortar for this confectionery Christmas house. Add a few architectural details -- peppermint sticks for roof shingles, jelly beans to line the windows, and rock candy along the rooftop -- and you'll have a fanciful creation that requires no baking.

It's best to use royal icing of a thicker consistency; otherwise, it can be difficult to make the candy stick. Try our recipe for Royal Icing.
