Hungry? Then check out this awesome life sized gingerbread man and gorge yourself to your heart's content. Or just buy one of these giant cookies and give it to somebody else's kids!
Implications - The tall, scrumptious Gingerbread Man takes the shape of a nutcracker soldier called the Colonel Cookie. It's made from unbleached white flour, honey, sugar, cinnamon and a variety of spices that adds extra flavor for effect. To top it off, the entire cookie is filled with delicious icing to complete the full attire of the nutcracker; so there's some serious authenticity here.
As good as it looks, the gingerbread man is purchased at your own risk because you may not be able to finish it all!
