The Gingerbread Book 50 Spiced Bakes, Houses, Cookies, Desserts and More

Gingerbread is beloved the world over, its very smell and taste signaling that the holidays are here.

The Book Of Gingerbread conjures up inspiring recipes for cakes and bakes, cookies, desserts, drinks, and gingerbread houses. From everyday bakes like Maple and Ginger cupcakes, Sticky Toffee Gingerbread Pudding, and Ginger Spiced Banana Bread, to spooky creations such as Ginger Pumpkin Pie-thon, Baba Yaga's Hut, and a terrifying Gingerbread Demogorgon, Helena Garcia's inventive recipes take gingerbread flavors to new heights.

And what could be more festive than Gingerbread Trifle, Traditional Gingerbread Men (well, sort of), and a Gingerbread Pub dressed up for Christmas, all washed down with a warming Gingerbread Latte or (for the grown-ups) Gingerbread Eggnog.

Featuring templates for the gingerbread houses and a beautiful photo for every recipe, The Book of Gingerbread will brighten up even the darkest evenings—and give you a tingle in your toes.
