To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the wild slapstick Christmas classic Home Alone, Disney commissioned cake designer Michelle Wibowo to create this amazing gingerbread house and she spent over 300 hours building a 1.7-meter by 1.25-meter gingerbread house in the form of the McCallister’s Christmas-themed Chicago home.
For the McCallister’s overly-windowed house (33 in total), Wibowo comes with some amazing detail from the movie including the characters, a Little Nero’s pizza delivery car with 14 pizza boxes, the Wet Bandits’ Oh-kay Plumbing and Heating van, Kevin’s treehouse with tire swing, the M-stamped door handle which would brand Harry for life, and Kevin himself face-planted in the snow after his staircase ride. There are no booby traps included with this house, just one dastardly paint can as a reference.
The gingerbread house will be making a show at the Oak Centre for Children and Young People at The Royal Marsden in Surrey, one of the biggest comprehensive children and young people’s cancer centers in Europe. Check out the amazing video below:
