The Gingerbread Carousel at Walt Disney World Resort

Each holiday season at Disney’s Beach Club Resort in Florida, a team of pastry chefs builds a giant gingerbread carousel in the hotel lobby. Every visible part is edible — the chocolate and fondant horses, the gingerbread floor and canopy, the white chocolate figures of Mickey Mouse and his friends, sugar poinsettias — even the accents of star anise and cinnamon stick.
