GINGERBREAD HOUSE DAY – December 12

Gingerbread House Day

On December 12th, Gingerbread House Day in the United States honors a family's holiday.

Around 992 AD, an Armenian monk, Gregory of Nicopolis, introduced gingerbread to Europe and taught French Christians how to bake it. Monks baked to be tough enough to be turned into saint portraits since gingerbread was often used in religious ceremonies.

We should still thank the Brothers' Grimm for a gingerbread house, but we can't. They introduce an evil witch who lives in a gingerbread house in Hansel and Gretel's story.. The German gingerbread guilds didn't take long to understand the concept. They put gingerbread houses to a more festive use soon, when making snowy cottages made from the spicy-sweet treat.

We'll be baking, cutting, and building to our hearts' delight today. Kits take some steps out of the process so we can get to constructing our winter wonderlands right away.

Gingerbread FAQ

Q. How can I glue the walls of the house together? For the best results, A. Use Royal Icing. This kind of icing will dry and hard if your creation stands for the entire holiday season. (This is if everyone in your household doesn't gobble it up first, not first.)

Q. What is the world's biggest gingerbread house?

A. According to Guinness World Records, the Texas A&M Traditions Club in Bryan, Texas, constructed the world's largest gingerbread house in 2013. With working gingerbread doors, the team raised funds for charity by charging admission fees to tour the life-size house. Jon Lovitch, of New York, is another record-breaking in the category of gingerbread.... Every year he builds a gingerbread village that is on display at the New York Hall of Science. Guinness World Records rated his village as the largest with 1,251 buildings in 2017.
