Construction
The gingerbread was baked in two pieces, one over a bowl, the other around
a metal funnel. I put the funnel on top of the bowl, covered the entire
thing with icing and sprinkled it with yellow sugar. I then attached the
raspberries, orange slices, candy corns, jelly beans, and dragees. The
pond is a melted blue hard candy, with chocolate rocks around it. The
ground is tiled with Necco wafers and a row of Starlight mints around the
edge of the base completes the picture.
