# Historic Replica Gingerbread Houses Biscuiteers Have Created a Cookie Replica of Waddesdon Manor By Joey Haar | Published 2016-11-25 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waddesdon-manor References: [apartmenttherapy](http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/this-impressive-gingerbread-house-took-500-hours-to-build-239022) & [waddesdon.org.uk](https://waddesdon.org.uk/whats-on/biscuiteers-manor-in-gingerbread/) Biscuiteers, a hand-iced biscuit company based out of the UK, has created a replica of Waddesdon Manor entirely out of biscuits and icing. Gingerbread houses are a [beloved holiday tradition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-house-kit), but [Biscuiteers gingerbread manor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-village-in-the-sky) is far beyond any product that has emerged from the traditional family activity. Biscuiteers' Waddesdon Manor -- which is based off of a real 19th century English manor of the same name -- is enormous. It measures at approximately two meters long and one meter tall, with two storeys that detail four rooms from the manor. That detailing is incredibly impressive as well. Biscuiteers prides itself on its hand icing for the cookies it sells, and the decor on its gingerbread house is a case study in precision icing. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## 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 Replica Art:** Companies can create edible, detailed replicas of famous landmarks and buildings as a unique way to showcase their artistry. - **Precision Icing Techniques:** Advancements in hand-icing techniques for cookies allow for intricate detailing and lifelike artwork. - **Edible Architecture:** Creating gingerbread or biscuit models of famous landmarks presents new opportunities for culinary artistry and unique events. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality:** Hotels and event venues can incorporate edible replicas of famous landmarks to enhance their guests' experience and offer new culinary experiences. - **Bakery:** Bakeries can expand their offerings by creating custom replicas of famous landmarks or buildings, leveraging their hand-icing expertise to showcase visual artistry. - **Tourism:** Travel agencies can offer unique experiences for tourists by creating tours centered around notable edible landmarks or showcasing the artistry of edible architecture. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Haunted Gingerbread Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haunted-gingerbread.md) - [Edible Pastry Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poptarts-gingerbread-lodge.md) - [DIY Pretzel Cabins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snyders-pretzel-cabins.md) - [Refurnished Concrete Shingle Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-house-1.md) - [Royal Show-Inspired Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biscuiteers.md) - [Unconventional Gingerbread Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unconventional-holiday-houses.md) - [Ready-to-Decorate Christmas Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcghees-bakery-gingerbread-men.md) - [Festive Meat-Made Holiday Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charcuterie-chalet-kit.md) - [Drone-Created Gingerbread Light Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gingerbread-village-in-the-sky.md)
