Gingerbread House Construction 101 Workshop

Have you ever wanted to make your own gingerbread house, but thought it was too difficult or time-consuming? Kick off the holiday season with an interactive gingerbread construction workshop with Gingerbread NYC mother-daughter duo Jennifer Roth and Sofia Rodriguez. 

Children and their caregivers will build and decorate their own gingerbread house using gingerbread, royal icing, nut-free candy, and other edible decorations, in a guided workshop that covers the basics of gingerbread house design and construction. Using their skills and creativity, participants will make a small gingerbread house to take home. 

After the program, we invite you to visit the show Gingerbread NYC: The Great Borough Bake-Off to see Jennifer and Sofia's work along with the works of other bakers who captured their favorite NYC landmarks using gingerbread.  

Designed for children ages 6+ with a grown-up. Please note that this is not a drop-off program. An adult must be present throughout the program. 

Length: 2.5 hours – This is a guided workshop with dedicated time for families to construct and decorate their gingerbread houses. A 20-minute break is built into the program for participants to have a special allergen-friendly snack provided by the baker. 

Materials: All materials, including snack, are provided.
