Gingerbread house + other DIY food patterns—these patterns look great and will whet your appetite—get your calorie-free Christmas treats now

Dear readers, dear authors,
gingerbread is really delicious, but unfortunately it also tends to settle on your hips.
That’s why I’m all for crocheting, knitting, crafting, or knooking lots of calorie-free gingerbread houses and other treats this year. It’s a lot of fun, and it’s guaranteed not to go straight to your hips—on the contrary, crafting actually burns calories. So you can go ahead and treat yourself to a cinnamon star afterward. :- )

@Authors
Please post two patterns each in this thread, including a picture, text, and link. Be sure to mention what makes your pattern a standout for Christmas decor. Have fun!

No gingerbread on CP?

Yes, Hamster, they do exist.
This gingerbread house brings a festive Christmas mood. It is richly decorated with candies and other treats.
You can place an LED inside so it lights up from within.

And here’s another plate of calorie-free Christmas cookies. Kipferl, Dominosteine, Spritzgebäck, etc., make a fun gift for someone who’s on a diet—or simply as decoration.

GINGERBREAD MAN

In the mood for calorie-free treats? Why not crochet yourself a few gingerbread men! :)

You can use them to decorate not only the Christmas tree, but also windows, gifts, and much more. 
You can even stuff them if you like. But they also look great flat. 

It’s best to start today and crochet yourself a few of them. :)

With Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8) and a 3 mm hook, the gingerbread man will be 13.5 cm tall (from head to toe).

In addition to the crochet instructions, the pattern also includes lots of step-by-step instructions for the individual steps. 
So it is also suitable for beginners.

Here’s the pattern: https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/9638/lebkuchenmann-anhaenger-haekelanleitung

You can even cuddle these two little guys ♥
With this detailed and richly illustrated crochet pattern,
even crochet beginners will soon have a cute gingerbread man
and an adorable Hanna Honigkuchen :-)
