Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Lay down a large piece of parchment paper on your counter or table for a non-stick surface.
  2. Assemble the Base: Place one Pop Tart vertically in the center and two Pop Tarts on either side for walls.
  3. Create the Roofline: Cut the top of the vertical Pop Tart to create a peaked roof and position the triangular piece accordingly.
  4. Position Everything Together: Adjust all pieces to ensure they are standing upright and stable.
  5. Secure the Structure with Icing: Pipe icing along the seams where the Pop Tarts touch to ‘glue’ them together.
  6. Attach the Roof: Place the top piece onto the walls and use icing to secure it snugly.
  7. Get Creative with Decorations: Use icing to attach candies and decorate as desired.
