Instructions
Making vegan gingerbread house icing is easy when you have the right ingredients. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make it:- In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar, vegan margarine, corn syrup, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon.
- Using a hand mixer, blend the ingredients until a thick dough forms.
- Once the dough is formed, slowly add in the water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough is wet enough to stick together.
- Once the dough is sticky enough, transfer it to a piping bag.
- Line your work surface with wax paper and begin piping the dough onto it.
- Using a knife or spatula, shape the dough into the desired shapes for your gingerbread house.
- Carefully lift the pieces off the wax paper and place them on the gingerbread house.

- Once all the pieces have been formed, carefully transfer them to the gingerbread house and press the pieces together.
- Let the gingerbread house sit for at least an hour before decorating.
