Ginger's Breadboys is proud to be the original and proud to hold our own in this space.

The holiday season at the Willard Intercontinental Hotel in Washington, DC, is always magical. In 2024, Ginger’s Breadboys was able to play a leading role in that magic as project manager of the collaborative effort to create the gingerbread display at the hotel. Visitors were treated to a breathtaking gingerbread display showcasing some of the National Mall’s most iconic landmarks. This edible masterpiece was the result of months of planning, artistry, and technical precision, made possible by the efforts of Chef Mark Mills of Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm, Chef Melissa Miller of The Preppy Chef, Frederick Community College’s Hospitality, Culinary and Tourism Institute (FCC HCTI), Frederick County Public Schools Career and Technology Center (FCPS CTC), and by invitation, Ginger’s Breadboys. We were thrilled to have been asked and included.
