Graham cracker houses was a big tradition in my family. My mom used to make a boiled sugar concoction that we would use to put together the structure of the house. It set up really hard, like cement. But, after years of getting burns on our fingers from that method, we started using hot glue to put the actual house together. But, we ALWAYS used frosting for the candy, of course! That way, the only part of the house that wasn't edible were the seams where you glued things together.
