Norwegian artist Caroline Eriksson just finished an epic sculpture of the xenomorph queen from Alien, made of gingerbread! In the reddit thread, she explains that the sculpture is built over an iron structure, held together with sugar syrup. The gingerbread is baked and then bent over curved surfaces while still warm to achieve the proper shape for each piece. The finished product is quite edible, but if not eaten, it will retain its shape for months. Ericsson has previously made a gingerbread Optimus Prime, Smaug, and Darth Vader.

Any of those could do well in a gingerbread contest - maybe even win!
