Texas Culinary Academy Gingerbread Competition


It's finally a little tiny bit cold outside, and to celebrate the semblance to Holiday weather, Texas Culinary Academy is hosting its 5th Annual Gingerbread House Competition & Open House this Saturday from noon to 3pm. The competition will feature entries from children to professionals.
Conventional wisdom might tell us that gingerbread houses might possibly be a little square or boring, but the entrants in this contest kick it up a notch every year with everything from miniature Cooper Minis riding across London's Tower Bridge to ice castles to barnyards.
The Open House will include a holiday cookie decorating workshop, cake decorating demo, and a life size Gingerbread Santa House where non-grinch visitors can have photos taken with “Chef Santa.” The Austin Girls Choir will be caroling and, of course, refreshments will be served.
