Museum of Architecture Gingerbread City

The annual Gingerbread City exhibition has become one of London’s best Christmas attractions. The sweetest festive event you’ll find, it tasks leading architects and designers to use their building know-house and ditch their conventional building materials for dough bricks and sugar paste mortar. Expect over 70 gingerbread buildings, everything from doughy houses, train stations, markets, museums, schools and parks – making up impressive, tiny biscuit cities. This year the theme is ‘Recycled City’, with all the sugary buildings designed in ways that show how recycling can be innovative and exciting. There’ll also be daily gingerbread house-building workshops (£90). Prepare for a feast for the eyes, but resist the urge to nibble!
