1. The Early Gift – The Biscuiteers DIY Gingerbread House Making Kit, £35.00, Biscuiteers

I don’t know about your household, but in mine, we almost always give an early gift. We’re quite a festive family and love getting each other presents, so of course we become very eager for the big day. So giving each other something early is a great way to manage our excitement. We like to share a homemade gift for this, so my mum enjoys giving out bottles of sloe gin while I bake batches of festive creations. After my gingerbread house success last year, I’m planning on doing the same again this year. After all, there’s nothing better than a spicy ginger biscuit, lavished in sugar snow. But, that’s if you can bring yourself to tear it down and eat it.

To save some time this year, I’ll definitely be buying a collection of gingerbread house making kits. With The Biscuiteers’ DIY making kit, you just can’t go wrong. The gingerbread shapes are readily prepared for you, allowing you to dedicate your time to decorating your perfect dream house. It comes with a wide selection of royal icing and charming decorations, so you’ll be building in no time. However, if you’re less of the creative type, there’s no need to worry. This kit comes in a beautifully packaged tin, so it also makes a perfect gift for someone else. No one could go wrong by giving one of these to that special, food-loving friend.
