Best Gingerbread Houses Displays
 
Where are the BEST Gingerbread Houses displays for Christmas? I remember seeing on Food Network a contest they have in Asheville, NC each year. Wondering if these gingerbread contests are held anywhere else in the U.S.? I'm kind of a cookie freak!

There is a fabulous gingerbread display (contest) each year at Peddlers Village in Lahaska, Pennsylvania.

My daughter has a gingerbread house entered in a contest/display at the Wheatleigh Hotel in Lenox, MA on Sunday (12/5).

Hi, I was one of the participants at Wheatleigh in Lenox, MA. I won First Place in the professional category. The gingerbread houses this year were incredible. It definitely was something to see. I hope your daughter did well and had a lot of fun with her gingerbread house. Happy Holidays.

Some of the creations in Seattle sponsored by Sheraton are pretty spectacular. They are on display this year in an office/shopping building at 1420 Fifth Avenue.

Cakelady-Does the Wheatleigh sponsor the gingerbread houses every year?
If so, are they in November or December?
Thanks..

Walt Disney World hotels. If you are there, each hotel has a separate display and they are awesome-entire carosels, kid sized "houses". Don't miss them if you are in the area.
