Standing at an impressive eight feet tall, the gingerbread Spaceship Earth is a testament to the artistry and dedication of the EPCOT pastry team, who spent over 160 hours crafting this intricate creation. The edible structure is composed of:

  • 240 pounds of honey dough
  • 100 eggs
  • 100 ounces of lebkuchen spice
  • 55 pounds of dark chocolate
  • 100 pounds of royal icing

The gingerbread sphere is made up of nearly 1,000 individual gingerbread triangles, reminiscent of the geodesic sphere’s iconic design. Guests can even purchase a Spaceship Earth tile gingerbread triangle at the nearby Experimental Prototype Cookies of Tomorrow holiday kitchen.
