Gingerbread Houses – Call for prices
Launch a friend into local real estate by giving them a house! The most original gift of the season, the Vancouver Special gingerbread kit is inspired by our city’s iconic architecture. Perfect for the design aficionado, it includes everything but the keys: royal icing, marzipan snowmen, aerated chocolate bushes, chocolate-covered-pretzel railings, fruit jellies and a host of other treats. Fun to build, and tasty to tear down!
For something fun to do, why not treat yourself to one of these Gingerbread House Workshops.
