This culinary delight is both extremely rare and incredibly demanding to create, but the results as I am sure you will agree are astonishing. One Christmas tradition in the Strom household is the creation of some sort of gingerbread structure in the final days before Christmas Eve. It started as a simple task, building barns and simple houses as kids. One year my brother created a colossal Norwegian Stav Kirke. It was a project with a foundation of chocolate covered almonds, hundreds of baked walls for the incredibly complex exterior as well as for a fully developed interior. The major innovation that year was the addition of lights inside the architectural marvel.
My sister was here for Christmas this year and we decided to revive this rich tradition and create a relatively simple church to add to the Christmas decor at home. Check out this photo set for a step by step guide on how to build your own Pepperkake Hus and for some detailed photography of this years creation.
