Guest Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) Getting in front with next half terms planning traditional tales and found most Gingerbread men recipes use a melting method.I've used this cold mix recipe for years and always found it reliable.Much safer with young children so I thought I'd add it to the resource bank. I also use it for Snowmen to hang on the tree using a a large and small circle cutter which over lap-currents and cherries for the face as usual and that piped ready made icing tubes for scarves and dusted with icing sugar.
