Gingerbread Creations Workshop: Ages 16-Adult (Ages 10-15 w/Adult)

Learn from Renee & Kirsten Poppenhagen, award-winning creators of gingerbread masterpieces nationwide!

Find a partner and join our Gingerbread building class for a fun, hands-on experience where creativity meets construction! Participating teams of two will learn essential building techniques for designing and assembling a sturdy gingerbread structure, including planning a layout, using icing as “mortar,” creating strong walls and roofs, and decorating with various edible items and candies. By the end, each team will have built a unique gingerbread creation to proudly display and enjoy.

Note: Only one team member needs to register. You will be asked during registration who your teammate is.

Consider entering your creation in the 2026 Princeton Gingerbread Creations Contest! More information coming soon.
