Lifesize edible gingerbread house

The 2010 Neiman Marcus Christmas Book is out and one of the Fantasy gifts is a page out of my childhood dreams. A munchable manor house (which is probably bigger than most studio apts in NYC) is 6.6 feet high by 5.25 feet wide by 4.1 feet deep.
The Candyland come to life dream mansion  is handcrafted of 381 lbs. of gourmet gingerbread and 517 lbs. of royal icing. This magical creation features thousands of gourmet sweets including giant cookies, lollipops, gummies, mints, gumdrops, and a candy-encrusted roof. There's also a lollipop tree inside (because you can't give someone an empty house).
All this wonderment can be yours for the mere price of $15,000. The sugar coma is free.
