Liesl has been looking for a Gingerman recipe - here is the link to our best rendition from the BB House, in the hope that it sparks some creative cooking in your neck of the woods.
Mum decorates Gingermen every week for the grandchildren, in footy colours. Superb effort really! One interesting fact though, is that icing in tubes readily available from the supermarket, do not appear to come in basic white in a form that sets, rather than a gel form. Do you have a quick tip for those of us time-pressured and needing a ready-made pantry staple? Mum is using her own piping bag, but I'm a fan of the tubes, as they save mess and time (and icing!)
Hmmm, this may be leading to a Week Of... Biscuits! Want to join in? Leave me a comment - we'll see how we go for next week!

How perfect - thank you for the link to the GB man recipe. Unfortunately I got overwhelmed with scone practice (for the show) last week, so didn't make jam drops or GB men. I'm sure my boys will love to try both this week though!
I'm with you on those writing gels. They don't set very well ... especially the red. I'm afraid I cheat and go for sultana buttons and eyes! Other than that you could try Multix piping bags and tips with some homemade cookie icing (pure icing sugar, lemon juice, colouring and water).
