What: Marvel at homemade gingerbread houses that are drafted, designed, baked,
planned, built and decorated by chef Jon Lovitch over the course of an
entire year. GingerBread Lane, a 1.5 ton, 300-square-foot village made
entirely of edible gingerbread, royal icing and candy, is a contender
for the Guinness World Record for the largest gingerbread exhibit.
The
village includes an estimated 1,900 lbs. of icing, 400 lbs. of candy,
and 500 lbs. of gingerbread dough. It is comprised of 152 gingerbread
houses, 65 trees, four gingerbread cable cars, five gingerbread train
cars, an underground candy subway station, candy trees and sugar
signage. A behind-the-scenes window gives a peek into the makings of
GingerBread Lane with ovens, models and ingredients made entirely from
royal icing. Five two-foot-high nutcrackers, also made of royal icing,
stand guard over the exhibit.
Free with NYSCI admission.
