"    Why stop at just one gingerbread house when you can create an entire gingerbread village (and break a world record while you&amp;#039;re at it)? According to Fox News, that&amp;#039;s just what chef Jon Lovitch did. The New York City chef created a giant gingerbread village containing 152 houses, 65 candy trees, 5 candy trains, and a candy underground subway station. The Guinness Book of World Records has confirmed that the gargantuan 1.5 ton gingerbread village consisting of 2,240 pounds of icing, 400 pounds of candy, and 500 pounds of gingerbread dough is officially the world&amp;#039;s largest. Even more amazing than the finished product is the fact that Lovitch built the entire thing in his small Bronx apartment, where he baked each piece individually over the course of several months. The village will be on display at the New York Hall of Science in Queens, New York, until January 12.
