Legend of the Gingerbread Man
Many years ago, the first Queen of England started the tradition of making gingerbread shaped people to impress her visiting dignitaries.
In Germany, when you received a decorated gingerbread shaped man tied with a ribbon it was considered a token of love.
Today, we traditionally decorate gingerbread men with icing and candy. At Christmas time, we give them to friends and family we love.
