This gingerbread latte pour overs recipe makes four gingerbread meltables. They are the cutest little gingerbread latte people around! I love making these to give as gifts and they've always been a great seller. Below you'll find the exact ingredients and packaging I use. I'm a huge gingerbread fan around the holidays and love gifting these along with my gingerbread caramels.
Ingredients - gingerbread latte pour overs
- white confectionery coating
- I prefer the hobby lobby brand. Stay away from the Wilton brand, it is too thick and waxy. White chocolate may also be used but do not use white chocolate baking chips / baking bar.
- instant dark roast coffee
- It must be instant, and must be dark roast. The darker the better. The confectionery coating adds a lot of sweetness to it and the dark roast balances it out. I use NesCafe and you can find it here on Amazon.
- gingerbread spice blend
- I purchase this from Amazon but you could also blend your own
- cinnamon
Equipment - gingerbread latte pour overs
- microwaveable safe large bowl
- spatula
- tablespoon measure
- ¾ teaspoon measure
- food scale
- gingerbread man silicone molds
- *If this mold is sold out, a few other options are below. Please remember that if the mold is smaller, you may end up with a slightly thicker piece of candy.
- Smaller gingerbread mold, Amazon
- Snowflake mold, target
- Christmas Tree Mold (slightly larger)
Packaging & Labels
- 8x6 cello bags
- twist tie ribbons
- Avery 2x4 inch labels
- These are placed on the bag of the bag with instructions for how to make the latte.
- Instructions I use:
- 1. Add gingerbread person to a wide mouth mug.
- 2. Pour 12-16 ounces of very hot milk over.
- 3. Stir to combine. Enjoy!
- Contains caffeine.
- branded hang tags
- A small 1 x 1" square with my logo on the front and QR code for customers to scan that takes them to my Instagram page. I had these made at Uprinting.com
