# Holiday Spaceship Desserts The Gingerbread Star Trek Enterprise Features a Candy Cane Laser Beam By Meghan Young | Published 2014-12-23 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-star-trek References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2014/12/20/Gingerbread-Enterprise/) & [blackmarketbakery](http://blackmarketbakery.com/) People who are feeling especially creative this holiday season might want to try their hands at building a Gingerbread Star Trek Enterprise in place of the traditional house. A challenging project to say the least, it will be a project that many people will love to indulge in while watching re-runs of the show instead of all the sappy Christmas films being aired on TV right now. The Gingerbread Star Trek Enterprise was created by Blackmarket Bakery, a shop based in California. Part of their [festive holiday window display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-house-kit), it is a refreshing change from more iconic imagery. The Gingerbread Star Trek Enterprise is also full of impressive details, which any fan of the sci-fi franchise will appreciate. From a [candy cane laser beam](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chip-city-cookies-and-tbs) to the proper proportions in general, it would be a shame to eat it. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gingerbread Star Trek Enterprise:** A trend of creating intricate gingerbread replicas of iconic science fiction spaceships, providing opportunities for bakery businesses to showcase their creativity and attract sci-fi enthusiasts. - **Holiday Window Displays:** A trend of creating innovative and attention-grabbing holiday window displays, presenting opportunities for retail and design industries to engage customers and create unique brand experiences. - **Alternative Holiday Creations:** A trend of people deviating from traditional holiday designs and creating unconventional and playful creations, opening up opportunities for DIY kits, tutorials, and niche markets catering to unique holiday aesthetics. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Bakery:** The bakery industry can tap into the trend of creating intricate gingerbread replicas of iconic science fiction spaceships, offering specialty holiday desserts that cater to the interests of sci-fi fans. - **Retail:** The retail industry can take advantage of the trend of innovative and attention-grabbing holiday window displays, utilizing captivating designs to attract customers, increase foot traffic, and enhance brand identity. - **Design:** The design industry can harness the trend of creating alternative and playful holiday creations, providing services and products that cater to individuals seeking unique and unconventional holiday aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Holiday Collector’s Puzzle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-atat.md) - [Modernist Gingerbread Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-dreamhouse.md) - [Galactic Build Milestones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-trek-uss.md) - [Playful Space-Themed Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacethemed-dessert.md) - [Sci-Fi Media Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buildabridge-mini-bridge.md) - [Haunted Gingerbread Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haunted-gingerbread.md) - [Edible Pastry Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poptarts-gingerbread-lodge.md) - [Drone-Created Gingerbread Light Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-village-in-the-sky.md) - [Cubic Sci-Fi Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-trek-borg-cube-advent-calendar.md)
