These are truly elaborate gingerbread houses. It’s incredible how much money and time a person will put into building a gingerbread house.
This is a replica of one of the most famous tourist attractions in San Jose, California. Winchester Mystery House. The confectionery version took over 400 hours to construct, 84 cups of gingerbread, 34 cups of icing and 31 bags of candy for the lawn.
Rebecca Russell specializes in gingerbread creations and cake toppers. She used different shades of gingerbread for this "Bear House", using different amounts of spices and molasses. The bears were made from gum paste and royal icing along with paw prints made from leftover gingerbread dough. Lovely!!!
Mother-daughter baking team Kaye and Liv Hansen from the Riviera Bakehouse in Ardsley, New York, put together this snow-covered Bronx Castle for the 2007 Gingerbread Adventures exhibit at The New York Botanical Garden.
A unique waterwheel gingerbread house
This gingerbread house was put in the lobby of Ritz Carlton Hotel in Cleveland. It was made by their pastry chefs.
This Disney's Gingerbread house is 16 foot high and took 600 pounds of sugar, 800 pounds of flour and over 3,000 egg whites.
This house was inspired by the winner of the Newfoundland Historic award. The original house is believed to have been designed by W.F. Butler, famed for designing many grand Queen Ann Revival Style homes.
