Sugar Rush: Gingerbread (Men and Women) at Bouchon Bakery

Say hello to Christmas! Gingerbread Men and Women ($4) recently made their holiday debut at Bouchon Bakery and they're so over-the-top cute, it's impossible to refrain from an awww. The women are sporting polka-dotted pink dresses with a matching bow, the men; pastel green pants. They make quite the couple. As for the cookie itself? This woman was crisp at the edges and most tender and moist at her belly. I would have loved for a touch more spice, but you're buying this mainly for the cuteness factor.
Stay tuned, Bouchon is turning out more holiday sweets in the next week, and we'll have your first look at candy cane macarons and other festive treats.
