Bake, cut and assemble a gingerbread house completely from scratch in a long masterclass.
fromUSD 250per person
This gingerbread class in New York covers the whole process of making a gingerbread house, from mixing the dough to the final icing detail, in one long masterclass. It takes place in the teaching kitchen of a family-run cake and baking supply business, founded in 1991, whose Manhattan flagship on West 22nd Street also houses a café and shop.
You mix and roll structural gingerbread, cut precise wall and roof panels from templates, bake them flat, then assemble a freestanding house and pipe lacework or brick details.
Pastry chefs share tricks for baking sturdy panels, cutting crisp edges and making strong, clean seams. Plan on about four hours. All ingredients and supplies are included. Wear casual clothes you don't mind getting sugar on and flat closed-toe shoes, and tie back long hair.
Keen holiday bakers who want to make the entire house themselves rather than decorate a kit. Every class is hands-on and interactive, so expect to be busy at the counter; please tell the team about any allergies or dietary needs before the class starts.
A freestanding gingerbread house built from your own baked panels and decorated with royal icing.
