Get in the festive Halloween spirit with this creative and sweet treat! In this online cookie decorating workshop, you will learn how to decorate a haunted gingerbread house.
We’ll start our festivities by making a warming herbal tea. While you sip on our herbal tea, you'll decorate your gingerbread haunted house with colorful candies and treats. If some of the edible decorations end up in your belly rather than on the house, that’s part of the fun!
Your host will demonstrate how to put together your gingerbread haunted house. She will provide easy follow-up instructions on how to construct your house once the decorations have dried. While your team is decorating your house, your host will ask you Halloween-themed trivia.
The class will finish with a gingerbread haunted house show and tell, so you can show off your amazing edible creations! If you're looking for fun Halloween activities to do at home, this is a fun and highly interactive event that will be enjoyed by adults and children alike.
