About Us

Hi there! I'm Tamara - owner of Gingerbread World European Christmas Market. Owner and everything else - collections curator, order taker and box packer! Welcome to my little shop - I'm so glad you found us!


Our fabulous customers seem to like the directions we've taken because Gingerbread World has grown steadily over the years.

Christmas is always the most exciting time of the year around here. Germany practically invented Christmas - at least they invented many of the traditions around celebrating Christmas: the Christmas Tree, the Advent Calendar, so many different pastries and confections. We are delighted to import almost all of our yummy treats and beautiful ornaments and gifts from a growing number of European countries. To create here on our website an experience similar to shopping at a European Christmas Market.

Whether it's for Christmas or any time of year there are several things I look for when adding new items to my Shop:

• they should be made in Europe (or at least designed in Europe)
• they should be made by companies that are the best in their category and ideally have an interesting company story
• they should be products that are premium quality, beautiful and have a story of their own - a story that my customers might share with their friends and family
