Disney4me Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Yes, the Christmas holiday has come and gone… So you might think it must be time to halt all the gingerbread chat for the year. However, just a few days after Christmas I stumbled upon two gingerbread displays that I’d never seen before.Sure, we’ve taken you on tours of the Grand Floridian’s famous Gingerbread House, and this year’s new Frozen-inspired Gingerbread Display at the Contemporary Resort. But I must say, these smaller displays have a charm all their own. I’m talking about the Gingerbread Houses created by Cast Members at the Art of Animation and Pop Century Resorts!Art of Animation Christmas TreeArt of Animation Christmas TreeArt of Animation Christmas TreePop Century Christmas TreePop Century Christmas TreePop Century Christmas TreeMuch like the Cast Member Pumpkin Carving contests happening at resorts all over Disney World for Halloween, various teams joined together to create their own gingerbread masterpieces. Guests placed their votes to determine a winner.Gingerbread House Contest DisplayOver at Pop Century, the Food and Beverage Team took home the prize for this colorful Gingerbread Minnie Mouse House.Minnie Mouse Gingerbread HouseI love the Krispy Treat Chimney!Minnie Mouse Gingerbread HouseThe other entries were pretty great, too .
