The 9th annual gingerbread showcase has begun this weekend

Share

Run, run as fast as you can so you can go see the gingerbread man!

The annual gingerbread showcase is back for its 9th year in a row, and it’s bigger and sweeter than ever before.

A combination of the works of amateur and professional bakers across Vancouver Island, this year’s event is themed “Celebrating Canada”.

So prepare to see (and smell) everything you love about Canada – from its people to its structures and landscapes.

All you have to do is donate to vote for your favourite gingerbread masterpiece. All proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity – an organization that builds affordable housing for low income residents in Victoria.

Last year, the show raised over $50,000, and the goal is to improve on that this year!
