Candy House - Colorful Version
I made this with my daughter (a freshman in high school)! This is the second year. This time, because we had differing opinions, we made 2 houses. We matched the size to the the baking tray and completed it using that small space.
For the icing, make the color by dissolving some food coloring in a little bit of water to get your favorite color! Depending on how you want to work, you can use a spoon or a piping bag to work the icing. The icing details, other than for building the house, dry quickly so don't make too much at one time. Use 1/3 egg whites and 50 g powdered sugar first. It uses a lot of powdered sugar, so it's best to have a big bag ready.
For the marzipan, I used the type sold in the markets! Dissolve the food coloring powder in a little bit of water to get your favorite colors. Once it feels like you're playing with clay, you can make the shapes. Recipe by Ranpuai

We made a tree out of marzipan and an ice cream cone. We turned it upside down and decorated it with icing. We made 2, so there's one in the picture and one more. They came out to be similar to Caprico sweets. I was so surprised!

A girl and a boy! Lovely!

For the finishing touches, I kinda winged a flower! Not that great, but...

This is my favorite place. It has ducks made from marzipan. Placing them visible at the front doubles the cuteness.
- 17
Star-shaped cookies! These were made from the leftover dough from the house and base, but they were crunchy and delicious.
- 18
When you finish eating the blue soda candies, there's a message that says Merry Christmas! My cousin was surprised!

Santa came to the house. You can see his hat...

There are so many delicious sweets!

The snack, TOPPO, was used for the fence and made to look like there is snow piled on top. Just use a little bit of icing to hold them in place so that they're easy to take off.
- 24
Star-shaped soda candies! You can use them, too. They're colorful and cute!

I attached them while thinking of the balance of the colors. It was difficult.
- 30
Just a little bit of icing to attach them is okay! Last year, we couldn't even take them off with a fork. I was shocked! So be careful.

To make the house and the base, I used a recipe from the back of the Tiger House Company's "Gingerbread House," Product Number 2331, Product Name: Log House.
- 34
Cookie Dough Butter (110 g), granulated sugar (80 g), whole egg (1), cake flour (230 g), almond powder (30 g), salt (a pinch), cinnamon powder (1 tbsp), ginger powder (1 tbs), and butter for the mold (as needed).
- 35
1) Bring the butter to room temperature. Sift together the flour, almond powder, salt, cinnamon powder, and ginger powder, and set aside. - 36
2) Put the butter and the granulated sugar into a bowl. Knead together well with a whisk, and then add the egg and mix it in.
- 37
3) Add the sifted powder ingredients to 2) and mix well with a wooden spatula. Bring the batter together and wrap it up with saran wrap. Let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- 38
4) Lightly coat the cake mold with butter. Match the batter from 3) to the pattern and push it into the cake dish. Bake for 30 minutes at 180°C. When it has cooled, remove from the mold.
- 39
5) Bake one more batch.
- 40
Now, put it together. Make semi-hard icing. Mix together egg whites and powdered sugar. When it becomes like clay, it's ready to use. It dries quickly like this, so building is easy.
- 41
I didn't have a tool to use for the marzipan so instead I found some in a toy store. I think I was able to use it fairly well.

By using the glue gun, you can attach the candy instantly with a little glue. If the surface of the hat is smooth, it will be easy to remove the candy when you want to eat it. Note: It gets hot, so mind you don't burn yourself. You can buy it in the 300 yen section of a 100 yen shop. Recipe by Ranpuai

Cute Candy Cookies Cute Candy Cookies
I saw a cookie with a candy window on a TV show awhile ago. I thought if it could be made with a black cocoa cookie, it'd make for a nice contrast and be really cute, so I gave it a shot. When I put the candy in before baking the cookie dough would become smashed or stick to the candy and it was quite difficult. So I changed the procedure to add the candy during the middle of baking.Try to fill in the gaps with smashed candy bits as much as possible. The baking may differ depending on your household oven, so adjust the temperature and baking time as necessary. If the temperature is too hot, the candy may burn. It might be a good idea to have candy bits left over when baking so you can fill in any gaps. For the candy, I use orange and pineapple flavored Sakuma drops. Recipe by yotiko -
