Where can I find a template for the little red truck?
Hi Marlene,
The Gingerbread Truck is one of our kits, we do not have a template for it. We currently have the kit in stock on wilton.com or you can check your local Walmart or walmart.com. Thank you!
I find it much easier to decorate as much as possible before assembly.
