Gingerbread is a dessert that can be formed in many different ways, with many different uses. Gingerbread is most often made with ginger, honey nutmeg, molasses or sugar and spices and many times referred to as spice cake.
The first mention of gingerbread dates back to 1793 but was probably used earlier as ginger was available for use since 1640.
Ginger bread is most widely used in the structure for gingerbread houses, then decorated with icing and candies like seen in Hansel and Gretel.
