Gingerbread House at The Fairmont Hotel

Make sure there is room in your business travel plans to stop by the enormous gingerbread house at The Fairmont hotel 959 Mason St. Although last year's house was amazing, the Fairmont has outdone itself this year. Executive Chef Chad Blunston and his team created an amazing two-story gingerbread house that stands 22 feet high and 23 feet wide created using hundreds of "bricks" made from gingerbread. Building materials also include 650 pounds of colored candy and 1,200 pounds of icing. Not to leave out fido, the Victorian gingerbread home will also include a house just for the pooch. Depending on the dates you are in the area, you can call ahead and find out when the next Gingerbread Holiday Tea will be held and create a memory that will last a lifetime.

Sugar Castle at Westin St. Francis

Another stop along your gingerbread home tour should be the Sugar Castle at the Westin St. Francis 2 New Montgomery St. in San Francisco. A holiday tradition started in 2005, Pastry Chef, Jean-Francois Houdre and his team of professional bakers will create a magnificent display of beautiful Sugar Castles. In addition to viewing the magic created by these amazing chefs, you and the children can enjoy locating tiny elf replicas of celebrities, athletes, and politicians stationed throughout the display. You will not be disappointed by adding the Sugar Castle to your list of "must see" while visiting the area.

The Gingerbread Chateau at the Palace Hotel

In addition to visiting the Sugar Castle, you do not want to forget The Gingerbread Chateau created by Chef Renee Cade at The Palace Hotel 335 Powell Street San Francisco. This amazing 8 by 16 foot chateau was artfully created using 400 pounds of gingerbread, 200 pounds of candy, and 150 pounds of icing.
