Spring / Summer
Chocolate House Project

By Bob Sherman

Chocolate houses are very popular for the Winter Holidays, but can be made for any season. This simple version is great for a housewarming or mortgage burning gift / centerpiece. These look fairly complicated, but as you will see below they break down into very simple steps. Since this article is heavy with photos, I have spread it over several pages to speed load times. I have tried to keep this as simple as possible, however skilled cake decorators may opt for more embellishment with a decorating bag and tubes.

Although these could be embellished with paper, cardboard, and plastic items I try not to use anything that is not edible in my chocolate houses. This forces you to be more creative when decorating. Note that there are many edibles that make great embellishments, and a visit to your local candy store will supply lots of ideas. I was on a tight timeframe with this and used only items I had laying around, but you could be as creative as you like when decorating. Another decorating option is the use of complementary chocolate molds such as trees or animals to add more decor if desired.
