a Gingerbread House for your Holiday Party

Posted on by laurie


How about a Gingerbread House for your Christmas party? Nothing makes a more impressive centerpiece during the holidays!

Gingerbread was brought to Europe by the Crusaders, and has iconic status in many places in Europe – the town of Market Drayton in the UK is known as the ‘home of gingerbread’ (since the 1700s), and the Brothers Grimm story of ‘Hansel and Gretel’ popularized the concept throughout the world.

Ginger, sugar, honey and spices give this delicious confection its trademark flavor. Thea has been building decorative, edible Gingerbread houses ever since she was a teenager inspired by Martha Stewart’s ‘Christmas Baking’ book. She has built them up to 5 feet high, and can design them with your family crest, company logo, or any other detailing that you require.
