There are so many holiday traditions that we all love and cherish, and Disney has a unique way of putting its own special twist on those traditions.
Gingerbread is one of those iconic holiday treats, and Disney World’s popular life-size Gingerbread House is one of those iconic spots during the holidays. We love watching its construction, breathing in the gingerbread-scented air, and of course, buying gingerbread treats from its little store window.
We truly love the miracle of watching the giant gingerbread house at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa go from this blank canvas…
It’s all coming together!
To this ornate mini-mansion made completely out of sweets!

Let’s tour around this gingerbread masterpiece, and we’ll point out some of our favorite details! The EARidescent colors of Disney World’s 50th Celebration made their way into the design, with blue and gold accents everywhere, including a lot of blue plants around the house.
First thing we noticed was the windows and the different characters you can spot at each one. This one has Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen (in his froggy form)!

We also spotted Anna, Elsa and Olaf…
Warm hugs on a gingerbread window
…Belle and the Beast…
Tale as Old as…Gingerbread!
…even Chip and Dale!
Foraging for winter? Or planning to stow away in the gingerbread house?
There are many other windows, so make the time to stop and take in all of the details and spot all of the characters!! While you’re checking out the window, take a look at this detailed ornament hung in the gables of the house.
The perfect little hidden Mickey touch
We also love exploring the little scenes and characters set up throughout the display, like this doorway with a snowman and toy soldier greeter.
What a cozy little welcome!
Around the porch is a nutcracker with his woodsman friend.
You’ll spot similar santa-like characters in different spots around the house…
You look familiar…
We even saw him in a red coat looking quite Santa-esque near the door!
How many of you are there?
But they’re no mistaking the real Santa at this display!
He looks so jolly!
Even donning a blue coat instead of red, there’s no mistaking him! He must’ve gotten the memo from Mickey that during the 50th Celebration, everything is BLUE.
There are so many details to take in, and we love snowy Christmas village!
Here’s another look at the construction.

Around the back of the house is the shop where you can purchase your holiday treats (complete with 50th celebration welcome mat!).
Time to order some gingerbread!
With so many festive offerings, it’ll be hard to choose, and you may have to come back a few times to try them all!

And while you nibble on your very own gingerbread shingle, you can read about all of the work and skill that goes into crafting this holiday centerpiece every year!
The Grand Floridian Gingerbread House will be selling its treats starting on November 9th.

I have been going to this attraction at Disney for over 30 years, every year, have not missed one, to get my daughter a Gingerbread Shingle from the GF. I would love to sit in the grand lobby and listen to the orchestra while my wife perused the shops. Then it was off to Gasparilla Snack Bar for some hot chocolate and a viewing of the MK fireworks. Great fun, awesome experience. I still do not know why they do not put in a 2nd service window to accommodate the crush of guests during the holidays. The lines can be brutal at peak times
