All we get here in Canada is those factory made ones. Time to bake our own!

I have some wooden molds. I have been able to get the details of the molds to show when I bake springerle and the flavor I like with gingerbread, but never the flavor and details in one recipe.
Would you be willing to share your recipe?
Thanks!

I am enjoying thinking about all those who might have baked from it. Or, was the mold possibly a decoration and the creator did not imagine that someone could find the right recipe to use it? I would love to know more.

GA, you always find the most appropriate subject to match the time of year. Louise Lateur’s “speculaas” hit just the right note for Christmas tradition and fun!

purchase these amazing gingerbread characters for my entire gift list. And, oh boy, Ms.
Lateur must be “the gingerbread whisperer” to be able to coax those large potentially-brittle
shapes from the mold. These are beautiful works of art, and so festive. I love knowing that this fun tradition continues. Well, of course — in London Town.

Happy Holidays!
Yum!
