For those looking to add some people to their gingerbread house decorations, but trying to stick to a vegan diet, this recipe from Love & Lemons is a real winner. Who says you can only make gingerbread houses from gingerbread dough? You can totally customize the way you do the candy part, but the one thing you definitely need is the special bulletin board paper to make all of the “frosting” borders.

With minimal use of frosting, more emphasis is placed on the sweets providing more of visual flair to the rest of the house. The sour tape is arranged creatively to form the bushes, with a good smattering of red Sixlets providing a brighter roof design. Candy canes form the framing with larger ones acting as door arches. The entire house is finished with a peppermint wreath and gumdrops.
