Gingerbread House Competition to Support Rosie’s Place
Make a gingerbread house and support a good cause!
GINGERBREAD HOUSE COMPETITION
Boston (September 10, 2008) – Chefs and culinary students from across the region are invited to create gingerbread houses of varying sizes to be sold, with proceeds to benefit Rosie’s Place, an organization created in 1974 to provide a safe and nurturing environment for poor and homeless women to help them maintain their dignity, seek opportunity and find security in their lives. The gingerbread creations will be entries in the 15th annual Gingerbread House Competition to be held in conjunction with THE 22th ANNUAL CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL, a celebration of crafts and specialty foods, held at Boston’s World Trade Center on November 7-9, 2008.
A panel of celebrity judges and children will select winning gingerbread houses based on creativity, decoration and taste. Houses will be displayed at the Christmas Festival, with signs crediting donors and chefs. Individuals and corporations may purchase these spectacular gingerbread houses and, after the event, may take their confectionery domains to be enjoyed at their home, office, or to be donated to a hospital, school or other organization.
To enter the Gingerbread House Competition to benefit Rosie’s Place, call
