Edible Gingerbread Playhouse


Edible Gingerbread Playhouse for only $15,000.

Nothing matches the childhood joy of building, admiring - then devouring - a holiday gingerbread house. This unique edible playhouse is handcrafted of 381 lbs. of gourmet gingerbread and 517 lbs. of royal icing. The munchable manor is 6.6 feet high by 5.25 feet wide by 4.1 feet deep.

With literally thousands of signature gourmet sweets from which to choose, it is both artfully designed and decadently delicious. It includes giant cookies, lollipops, gummies, mints, gumdrops, and a candy-encrusted roof. There's also a lollipop tree inside, just for good measure.

And we wonder why obesity, diabetes and depression are all increasing, among children and adults!

Call me old-fashioned, but there was a time when children used their imaginations and fantasised about things like this rather than having their every carnal whim indulged.

I pity for the poor girl in the photo who presumably would then encouraged to gorge herself on the sweets, rotting her teeth and meaning that she won't fancy her greens at dinner time!

Items like this one make me sad :-(
