Decorating cakes and gingerbread houses.
Gingerbread was introduced to Europe by the crusaders. The Hansel and Gretel story of 1812 still features a gingerbread house. Maybe a gingerbread house was always a good shape for a Christmas cake.
Gingerbread houses originated in Germany during the 19th century, particularly popularized by the Brothers Grimm's fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel." The tradition evolved from earlier practices of making gingerbread, which dates back to ancient times. German bakers began crafting elaborate gingerbread houses decorated with icing and candies, a custom that spread across Europe and became associated with Christmas celebrations. Today, gingerbread houses are a festive tradition in many countries around the world.
Gingerbread houses were introduced to Canada by German settlers in the 19th century. These settlers brought with them their traditions of baking and decorating gingerbread, which became popular during the Christmas season. Over time, the practice evolved and became a cherished holiday tradition in various Canadian communities. Gingerbread houses are now often associated with festive celebrations and family activities during the winter months.
