Gingerbread Christmas Cake

I don't really like Christmas cake, its low down on my list of Christmas foods. I find it dry and heavy, tough with the density of the fruit. So this year I decided to put a gingerbread house on top of the cake so I'd have something nice to eat! I can't ignore the kitsch factor here either, I mean the house is totally adorable! You can fill it with goodies, pipe on decorations, use sweets and jellies to make window sills, roof tiles, pathways, figurines etc. Go for it!

Happy Christmas everyone!
