To take things over the top, add snowmen made of mozzarella balls, black olive hats and pretzel stick arms-all held together with a toothpick. For the effect of freshly fallen snow, sprinkle finely grated Parmesan cheese onto the whipped cream cheese. Use a piping bag filled with whipped cream cheese to pipe snow onto the roof of the house. You can use chickpeas or corn nuts to make an inviting walkway by sticking them onto the cream cheese snow on the base of the platter. Step 3: Landscaping Touches for Curb Appeal Start at the bottom, adhere all the way across and then work your way up, slightly overlapping each row. For the shingles, add pepperoni rounds to the roof using the spray cheese to adhere each slice. Use spray cheese to adhere the cheese chimney to the roof. It should fit the angle of the bread roof. To make the chimney, use a paring knife to notch out a chunk of cheese on the bottom of a 2-inch rectangle of cheese. Use spray cheese to adhere pretzel grids as windows on either side of the door and to fill in a diamond-shaped window on each side where the siding meets the roof. Next, use cut breadsticks to fill in the side of the roof. Use the spray cheese to adhere 3 large rectangular crackers to the front and the back of the bread roof, starting with the center one and working out to ensure even overhang. Then place the roof-shaped bread onto the top of the cheese base. Use a serrated knife to diagonally cut the top portion of a loaf of unsliced bread into the triangle shape of the roof. Step 2: Make the Roof, Windows and Chimney Use spray cheese to adhere the breadstick logs all the way up all sides of the house-use whole breadsticks for the back, cut breadsticks for the sides and use cut and whole breadsticks for the front, around the door. Use this same method to cut logs for the sides. Use a serrated knife to cut breadsticks (for best results, saw through slowly) into 2 pieces that will fit on either side of the door. ![]() Use the spray cheese to add a chickpea doorknob.
