Gingerbread House Competition 2012

The annual gingerbread house contest was back in full force this year. The theme was haunted houses. My brother and I both had the idea to do a dry ice smoke effect (which was funny). This was the first year both houses were good; I'm glad the voting was left up to attendees of the family Christmas party.

He won the over all contest by a single vote. I feel I beat him on the engineering of the dry ice effect though. No doubt the victor deserves their win.

There are a few highlights posted below of the testing, construction and finished product, and the whole photo album (with a surprising number of bald spot shots) can be found here. There are a few pictures of the destruction in the album too, but the video better captures the explosions... I'll post that when I get a chance.

The gingerbread house competition sounds like a blast! The dry ice smoke effect adds a spooky touch. Congrats to your brother for winning by a vote. Both houses look fantastic!

The Gingerbread House Competition wasn’t just about winning—it was also a celebration of community, family, and holiday tradition. Spectators enjoyed walking through the display, marveling at the craftsmanship and creativity on display. For many, the event became an annual tradition, bringing together people of all ages to celebrate the season with sweet treats and holiday magic.
