Gingerbread man : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gingerbread man
A gingerbread man is a biscuit or cookie made of gingerbread, usually in the shape of a stylized human, although other shapes, especially seasonal themes (Christmas, Halloween, Easter, etc.) and characters, are quite common. ==History== Gingerbread dates back to the 15th century, and figural biscuit-making was practiced in the 16th century.〔''300 Years of Kitchen Collectibles'', Linda Campbell Franklin, 4th edition (Americana: New York ) 1998 (p. 183)〕 The first documented instance of figure-shaped gingerbread biscuits was at the court of Elizabeth I of England. She had the gingerbread figures made and presented in the likeness of some of her important guests.〔Donald F. Lach (2010). "Asia in the Making of Europe, Volume II: A Century of Wonder. Book 3: The Scholarly Disciplines, Volume 2". p. 442. University of Chicago Press〕
