Historic Christopher Ludwick gingerbread
Regular price
$17.00 USD
This fragrant gingerbread cookie is hand-pressed into replicas of revolutionary war baker Christopher Ludwick's original cookie board, held by the Museum of the American Revolution in Old City, Philadelphia. Slightly spicy and molasses-forward with delicate interior, this glazed gingerbread cookie is a favorite among staff and visitors alike. This cookie board has two moulds: the naturalistic tulip, and the maiden. You will receive a combination of both shapes.
In 1754, German-born Christopher Ludwick arrived in Philadelphia and opened a successful bakery at Letitia Court, where he built a reputation as an American patriot and advocate for his fellow immigrant countrymen. He made invaluable contributions to American independence during the revolutionary war, and was appointed by General Washington as superintendent of bakers. 250 years later, on the same Old City block where Ludwick got his start, these traditional gingerbread cookies are still being baked in his honor.
