Now that is what I call a Chnusperhüsli, but in this case more of a house! (in english a gingerbread house). You can smell the gingerbread as you approach it. It was very difficult not to bite off the tree top when nobody was looking! This one was made for the Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony last night at one of the hotels here in Zurich, Switzerland. Do they have these in your country? Background info: Gingerbread Houses are intricately linked to the Grimm fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel. In the story, the two children Hansel and Gretel get lost in the forest. They come upon a house made of gingerbread richly decorated with frosting and sweets. It turns out to be the house of the wicked witch. She befriends the kids, fattens them up and tries to eat them. Luckily, Hansel and Gretel escape in the end.
