2017 Gingerbread Display: Gretna Greetings

The creative confection for 2017 highlighted the 125th anniversary of the town of Mt. Gretna, located in Lebanon County Pennsylvania. The display featured candy construction, in 3/8” scale, modeled after actual homes in the town today. Iconic buildings include the Jigger Shop, Emporium, Hall of Philosophy and Playhouse can also be found. Clients and business associates voted on their favorites which are featured in the above photos.

This was the 28th year that RLPS employees, family members and friends have used frosting, gingerbread, pastas, beans, candies, cereals, pretzels, gum, fondant and other edible materials to create a holiday display. Supplies start arriving in late November and construction occurs at the close of business each day and over the course of many week-end hours.

A special thank you to all those who visited and donated 12 overflowing boxes of non-perishable food donations for Water Street Mission.
