Make sure to leave a space for the door and once you get to the third level of cubes, leave space for 2 windows on each side.

Once the sides are 5 to 6 inches high, arrange the sugar cubes in a pyramid pattern on 2 ends of the house to form the pitched support walls for the roof.

Fill the pastry bag or resealable bag with some of the frosting and use it to fill in any gaps in the house or on or around the roof.

Use any remaining sugar cubes, round white candies, white chewy candies, or marshmallows to adorn the house or make decorations (trees, bushes, fences, or snowmen) around the house on the foam core board.
