Gingerbread is a sweet treat which symbolizes the sharing and family unity of the Christmas holiday.
A gingerbread recreation of a Hungarian village has been unveiled by locals ahead of Christmas, featuring models of 100 houses as well as local businesses, churches and the mayor's office.
Housed in a heritage centre for the Slovak minority in the village of Csomor, the village also features details such as a working train, church windows made of crushed candy, and lamp posts also modelled in gingerbread with LED lights.
Erzsebet Szabo, president of the local 'Slovak Nationality Self-Government' organisation, said the construction of the village had been a team effort by Csomor residents, as the gingerbread version went on display on Sunday (December 1).
"Many people worked on the gingerbread village in the evenings after seven, coming from work, often working with us until midnight", Szabo said.
The shopping list for the gingerbread village included 70 kilos (154 lb) of flour, 20 kilos of icing sugar, 20 kilos of honey and 220 eggs as well as other ingredients, one of the creators said.
