The Gingerbread Express is surrounded by Christmas decorations and is loaded with a bag filled with toys Santa needs to deliver. The giant gingerbread toy train is made up of all edible pieces that are constructed to look like a functional train! Gingerbread planks, candy bolts, fondant siding, and more!

This year’s new toy train design has been a vision in the making for the past four years and the Chef was thrilled to finally put this gingerbread toy train in “motion!”
