How it works

Gingerbread Games is our most popular holiday event. You and your squad of hand-decorated Gingerbread People are on a mission to take control of the Winter Wonderland! Compete against other squads in mini-challenges that will test creativity, physical prowess, cleverness, and strategy. Perfect for those who love strategy, snacks, board game nights, and playing with their food.

Prior to the event, attendees receive kits containing gingerbread people cookies, frosting, and sprinkles. Our kits are sourced from a small-batch, boutique bakery and made exclusively for our clients, meaning booking this event also supports a women-owned small business!

Rather than simply following a decorating tutorial on Zoom, teammates use the cookies as part of mini-games. For example, glancing at a design and recreating it from memory, or decorating cookies with the correct animal alluded to in a riddle. Of course, there will also be time for your team to let their creativity run wild and freestyle decorate.

Gingerbread Games is our most popular holiday event with 25,000+ kits shipped to date. Remote teams love the hands-on aspect of the kits, and of course, tasty cookies!
