Life-Sized Gingerbread House – Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa: The Grand Dame of Disney’s gingerbread creations, this amazing life-sized Victorian-style house really needs to be seen to be believed. Each year over 10,000 pieces of gingerbread go into making this stunning creation.

The replica house shingles are delicious and make fun and unique stock stuffers.

3. The United States Capitol Building – Epcot – The American Adventure: For those making their way around the World Showcase this Holiday Season, you have to pop by The American Adventure and check out the gingerbread replica of the U.S. Capitol Building.

Lilo & Stitch will be adding a bit of a tropical flair to this year’s creation which also features carousel horses with coordinated, hand-painted holiday characters as well as gingerbread snowflakes and snowman. This annual holiday creation makes the perfect backdrop for those family Christmas photos.

5. Gingerbread Disney Springs Icons – Amorette’s Patisserie- Disney Springs: This year Amorette’s, the home of the amazing Mickey Dome cakes will be getting in on the gingerbread action by paying homage to some of Disney Springs most iconic locations.
