They come packed in a 5 lb bulk box, approximately 26 cookies per pound. This is a finished, ready-to-serve holiday cookie built for volume, available in bulk and wholesale quantities for bakeries, delis, caterers, grocery bakery departments, and foodservice operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe gingerbread man is the signature shape of the Christmas cookie table, and this one arrives finished, shaped, spiced, and topped, needing nothing done to it. It is the item a bakery reaches for when it needs the holiday centerpiece cookie without building it from scratch during the busiest weeks of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"full_description\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Crisp, Spiced Gingerbread\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThis is a crisp gingerbread rather than a soft, chewy one. It is built on a traditional spekulatius recipe, the old-world European spiced biscuit that gingerbread descends from, which gives it a deep, layered spice and a firm snap on the bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThe spice runs warmer and fuller than a plain supermarket gingerbread man, and the texture holds up on a platter or in a display rather than going soft. It is a cookie that reads as authentic and old-fashioned, closer to what a European Christmas market cookie tastes like than a mass-produced one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Colored Sugar Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThe cookie is topped with colored sugar rather than piped icing. That finish gives it the decorated holiday look with a crunch on top and none of the fragility of an iced cookie, which can chip, crack, or smear against its neighbors in a bulk box or on a platter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThe sugar is baked on and stable, so the cookie handles, ships, and displays without touch-up. It comes out of the box festive and finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere the Gingerbread Man Earns Its Place\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eThe gingerbread man is a seasonal workhorse. It anchors a Christmas cookie platter, fills a holiday grab-and-go case, and gives a caterer the one shape every guest recognizes as the season. For a bakery, buying it finished removes the most labor-heavy holiday cookie from the production schedule during the weeks when there is no labor to spare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eIt also carries display presence that a round cookie does not. The figure shape stands out on a tray, works as an edge or a centerpiece on a mixed assortment, and photographs as unmistakably holiday for a case sign or a catering menu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eChristmas and holiday cookie platters\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eBakery and deli holiday display cases\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eGrab-and-go seasonal retail packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eCatering and holiday buffet service\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eOffice and workplace holiday events\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eGrocery bakery holiday departments\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eCoffee shop and cafe seasonal counters\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eCookie decorating and craft activities\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eHoliday gift boxes and assortments\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003eInstitutional and volume holiday foodservice\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eContains Wheat, Egg, Milk, and Soy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage and Handling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cp\u003eStore dry.
