By the thirteenth century ginger and gingerbread were well known and appreciated in England.
In the fourteenth century Chaucer, who seems to have been food-conscious,records: “They
sette hym Roiall spicerye and Gyngerbreed.”
Throughout the sixteenth,seventeenth,and eighteenth centuries gingerbread grew ever more elaborate.
Queen Elizabeth I of England, never one to deny a sweet tooth,knew that her guests were fond of gingerbread, especially if the cake was molded in the image of the guest to whom it was offered.
A gingerbread likeness proved to be so successful a conversation piece,Elizabeth I hired a special artist-baker, whose sole work was the creation of gingerbread lords and ladies to amuse and flatter her courtiers.
