This Christmas,
More than a book. Your Christmas project.
Some people get it to finally make the house they've always wanted. Some bake with their kids. Some bake a few to sell. Some give one as a gift. What will yours be?
For you
Finally make the one you always wanted
Ever stopped at a bakery window and thought “I wish I could make that”? Now you can. Actual-size templates and photo steps take the guesswork out, even on your very first house.
For a little extra money
Bake a few to sell
A handmade gingerbread house is a holiday showpiece people love to buy: at bake sales, craft fairs, or for neighbors and coworkers. You're welcome to sell the houses you bake yourself.
For someone you love
Give one as a gift
Bake a house for the grandparents, a teacher or the neighbors, with 8 printable gift tags ready to go. Or give the book itself to the baker in your life.
Whatever your reason, it starts with the first template.

Questions
Good to know
Is this a physical book?
No, it's a beautifully illustrated digital e-book that's yours the moment you check out. Read it on any device and print the templates at home. Nothing to ship, nothing to wait for.
Is the house from the video in the book?
Check the list of all 50 houses above. If you see it there, its full template set, candy list and steps are in the book.
What paper size?
US Letter, 8.5 x 11 in. Print at 100% / Actual size and check the 1-inch square before you cut.
Do I need special tools?
No. A rolling pin, a sharp knife, parchment, baking sheets and piping bags (or zip bags) are enough.
Is it beginner friendly?
Yes. Every project shows its skill level, and several easy houses take one afternoon. The A-Frame Cabin has only 4 pieces.
Can I sell the houses I make?
Yes. You can sell the gingerbread houses you bake and decorate yourself, for example at bake sales, holiday markets or to friends and neighbors. What you can't sell or share are the templates or the e-book itself. Selling homemade food has rules that vary by state, so check your local cottage food rules first.
Can I give it as a gift?
Yes. Buy it, then forward the download email to the person you're giving it to (one copy per purchase). Or bake a house as the gift: the book includes 8 printable gift tags.
Can I print the templates more than once?
Yes, as many times as you like for personal, family and classroom use. Use it this Christmas and every Christmas after.
How do I get my file?
Right after payment you land on your download page. We also email you the link, so you can download it again later.
Can I use it on my phone or tablet?
Yes. The e-book is fully clickable: tap any title in the contents to jump straight to that house.
How long is the holiday price?
The $12 price is for the holiday season only. After the holidays the e-book goes to its regular price of $19.90.
What if I have a problem?
Email support@thegingerbreadvillage.shop and we'll help.
Can I get a refund?
