Sneak Peak at Dahlia Bakery Gingerbread House/ by Shelley Lance, Blog Editor

Take a look at this stunning Dahlia Lounge and Dahlia Bakery Gingerbread House!! For now, the gingerbread house is living in the back of the pastry bakery while the final touches are installed (which is why you can see the “do not touch please” sign in the top photo) but it will soon be on display in the Dahlia Lounge restaurant.  The details are amazing!  You can see little croissants on the Dahlia Bakery pastry shelves and fig bars are being rolled out in the pastry bakery.  Inside the Dahlia Lounge, gummy fish on toothpicks stand in for Dahlia’s fish lamps.  There’s a Real Change guy at the Dahlia entrance, hawking his wares, and a Metro bus puttering up the street.  Pastry Chef Garrett’s Mini-Cooper is parked right in front of the Dahlia Bakery entrance.  To keep things realistic, there’s a parking ticket on the windshield.  This masterpiece is a real labor of love and it was labored on by the whole Dahlia Pastry team, but especially by Pastry-Artiste-Extraordinaire, Stacy Fortner!
