What's so special about the Ginger's Breadboys cookie? Our gingerbread recipe and the formula we use for our gingerbread cookie mix makes a very forgiving dough that is easy to work with and bakes a delicious cookie every time. Made with Sir Galahad Artisan Flour from the King Arthur Baking Company - never bleached and never bromated and no preservatives. Most importantly though, the taste is awesome!
In 2021, we began offering a gluten-free gingerbread cookie mix.
In 2022, we began offering a gingerbread house kit.
And in 2023, we began selling our gingerbread cookie mix and our large (5-inch) gingerbread man cookie cutter as stand-alone items.
