Chelsea Hardy who owns Dulcet Cake Co will be making a gingerbread house to be displayed for the second year in a row at the St George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm. The gingerbread house will be on display between Monday, November 30th to Saturday, December 12th. Come have a look at it, vote for it and get your stamp on your stamp card.*

Last year her amazing Harry Potter themed gingerbread castle won the category of best constructed in our friendly little competition portion of the St George Gingerbread Parade. Chelsea has a background in architecture so it's no surprise. The secret to the perfectly cut lines was to bake the gingerbread cookie in large flat pieces first and then to have the shapes cut by laser. This wasn't a cheap process, by the way - but it can be done.

Here are some of last year's pictures of the gingerbread castle - and there was even video of it being made - check out her YouTube channel to view. Very cool. And then some photos of some of her other awesome cookies and cakes. People didn't think it was real gingerbread - but I assure you it most definitely was.
