The history of gingerbread goes back to the 9th century when traders traveling to China and India brought the spice to Europe. It became such a favorite that dishes of ground ginger were placed on the bar for patrons to sprinkle in their beer. It would be hard to say Germans invented gingerbread, but there are recipes dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. That gingerbread was more like a candy than the cake-cookie varieties we have now.

It"s a long shot, but there are peripheral glances of a man-made monster in Yiddish folklore called the GOLEM which was visualized as a man made of Clay-or some dough-like substance, like the Gingerbread man. in both cases the creature was created fully grown- the Gingerbread MAN, not Boy.
