You'll Want To Move Right In!

Trader Joe’s Gingerbread House Kit is a traditional German hexenhaus – literally, witch's house – whose origins can be tied to the tale of Hansel & Gretel. Sure, that witch had her vices, but she was just terrific at decorating her candy house! And you can do the same with our table-top version.

Each kit contains the pieces to make a substantial hexenhaus, and we've even included a cookie base to make everything sturdy enough to last on your table through the season. We've priced our Gingerbread House Kits at $7.99 each, a terrific value. Make one for show and one for play – kids love toys they can eat, and since this is just a replica, there's no witch around to eat them! Whatever you do, don't wait too long to buy yours. We only order these for the holidays and when they're gone, we won't have any more until next year.
