| If you want your gingerbread to be edible, and not rock hard, there will always be that possibility if there is moisture in the air. However, you can take extra precautions by baking the pieces a bit longer to reduce the moisture content, and once biult, storing them in a cabinet with silica gel (or a comparable moisture absorbing agent). Just make sure the chemical doesn't come into contact with the food. |
