I love the mini nilla wafer roof! We used a pre-baked and pre-assembled gingerbread house from the grocery. Young children with little patience need to get right to the fun of decorating, but one day I plan to bake an elaborate one myself.
Ohoho, we also used the Wegmans pieces, but had a decidedly different result. About three failed batches of icing and the artistically agressive touch of a preschooler later, we had the worst-looking gingerbread house I've ever seen.
I wouldn't have been surprised if gingerbread code enforcement came along and condemned it.
