Hi,

Lib is my wife of 29 years. Lib made the twizzlers with extruded fondant. I made and installed the fondant shingles.

I'm tempted to bring some of those pics over from tob. What do you think?

Hi,

Here is Thomas the Tank Engine. Our daughter in law, Yvette helped with the toys. Virtually everything is edible and handmade with the exception of the two baseball mitts.

The second car of the train was filled with handmade fondant toys.

An elf was asleep atop the roof. Notice the gum paste flag.

I always knew isomalt had an aesthetic purpose! Nicely done.

Do you actually nibble on these after the holidays? Or are they strictly ornamental?

Looking at them all again I love that rock candy chimney and the criss cross roof cookies on the yellow house. I could imagine dipping some of it into a cup of coffee on about January 10.
