Questions & answers
What you should know
How long does a workshop visit take?
A time slot lasts two and a half hours. There are four a day: 10:00, 13:00, 16:00 and 19:00. In between, we tidy up and reset the tables.
Do I bake myself?
No – we bake, you decorate. It isn’t a classic baking class: it’s all about designing, trying things out and spending time together.
What do I book online?
Your seat at the workshop table for up to two and a half hours. When booking, you pay €25 per person – that’s your credit. You choose gingerbread, kits, toppings and drinks in the shop, and we deduct everything from your credit.
Who needs a seat?
We only reserve seats for guests who decorate themselves. Everyone who decorates counts towards the booking.
Are drinks included?
You order drinks on site – they’re deducted from your credit like everything else. You’ll find the prices on our menu.
Can people come along who don’t decorate?
We’re still working this out and will let you know as soon as it’s decided.
Which allergens are included?
We’ll publish the allergen information for our gingerbread and toppings before we open. If you have allergies, please ask us on site.
Can I take my creation home?
Yes, everything you decorate goes home with you – along with your printed photo from the photo booth.
Can I have my photo taken with my masterpiece?
Yes! At the end of your visit our photo booth is waiting – for a souvenir photo with your gingerbread house, your hearts or your whole team. The photo is printed on the spot and you take it with you.
How do groups and companies book?
Up to 10 people can book directly online. For larger groups and evening slots, please use the group request – we’ll get back to you with a proposal. For company Christmas parties there’s the hosted Gingerbread Challenge for up to 108 people: katchi-ice.com/fuer-unternehmen/weihnachtsfeier-berlin-lebkuchen-challenge
