Dylan's Candy Bar is known for its top-notch assortment of sweet treats, and this pre-made gingerbread house is no exception. Apart from the fact that it's already built — take that gravity! — this whimsical kit also comes with an 8 oz. bag full of everything you need to make your gingerbread house the talk of your Christmas table, including holiday sprinkles, swirled starlight mints, gumballs, jelly beans, gumdrops, festively colored-candy corns and rainbow sugar ribbons. Though the price tag for this option is a bit heftier than most of the other kits on this list, it's totally worth it once you hear all the compliments you'll get from anyone that stops by with a "holiday hi!"

Gramma Nutt, Princess Frostine, Gloppy, King Kandy and kids of all ages will love this Candy Land-inspired gingerbread house offering.

We like to think of this adorable kit as an edible puzzle, thanks to the interlocking cutouts found on each one of the included gingerbread walls and roof panels.

Two piping bags and two decorating tips are also included inside, so you won't need to make any additional purchases either. Williams Sonoma also offers this kit in sets of two, four or six, in case you're looking for some extra entertainment for your yearly cookie swap or holiday party.

Everything in it is also completely vegan and gluten- and allergy-free, so you don't have to miss out on the Christmas cheer in case you have any dietary restrictions.

This kit also makes a really fun stocking stuffer, if you're looking for something extra to add to your gift pile.
