FAQs

That Gingerbread Place has a reputation for both great tasting and amazing looking cookies and houses. All of the members of That Gingerbread Place Team take a great deal of pride in their work, treating every cookie and every gift like it was being sent to one of their own family members.

Believe it or not, EVERY GINGERBREAD COOKIE you purchase from us is HAND DECORATED down to every last detail. Our gingerbread cookies are made using only the finest quality ingredients and then hand decorated with our very own tasty fondant. Finally, we add a little extra love to ensure that every cookie is as an edible work of art making each gift extra special for your loved ones! We are also the only company in Australia who customise Gingerbread Houses for edible corporate gifts - they truly are a spectacular gift and are generous in size.

They LOOK good, but do they taste good? We think so, and if you like freshly baked Gingerbread Cookies baked from scratch with no premixes are dairy free and have NO PRESERVATIVES we think you will enjoy them too! Children of all ages love them as they have just the right balance of spices, not too strong but not too light either!
We use only the finest Australian ingredients in our recipes. Our products are 100% Australian made. Our products are distributed via the our internet site, and Exquisite Cakes Castle Hill.

If you think we pay a lot of attention to detail when we decorate our cookies, wait till you see how we package them. We make sure that every That Gingerbread Cookie is individually wrapped and protected to prevent damage to the cookie or the work of art that has been created on it. Once assembled into a bouquet or basket, all of our gifts are again bubble wrapped and surrounded with extra cushioning before they are boxed and shipped across the country to your friend, family member or business associate.
