gingerbread
Holiday house material
Gingerbread is a cake or cookie flavored with ginger and molasses, often shaped into figures or used to build decorative houses: The kids made a gingerbread house for Christmas.
The word also describes elaborate ornamental woodwork on Victorian buildings, whose intricate trim resembles icing on gingerbread: a cottage with gingerbread detailing.
