Giant Gingerbread House for $15,000

Written by Bryce

$15,000 or $16… you be the judge.

“This unique edible playhouse is handcrafted of 381 lbs. of gourmet gingerbread and 517 lbs. of royal icing by the expert confectioners at Dylan’s Candy Bar®. The munchable manor, which stands 6.6 feet high by 5.25 feet wide by 4.1 feet deep, incorporates the best confections from the world’s largest candy store in New York City,” according to NeimanMarcus.com.

Because in a down economy (it’s senseless to even mention the childhood obesity epidemic here) who doesn’t need a giant edible playhouse to satisfy all Christmas cravings? My solution is actually a calorie-free dollop of The Gingerbread Man by Philosophy.  At $16, you’ll also be saving 99.9% of the money you might’ve spent on a lifesize candy house while lathering up in some of the sweetest, gingeriest (is that a word?!) bath gel in town.
