Gingerbread Wars 5 Benefiting the FLITE Center

​Five years strong, and the icing's never been thicker. Gingerbread Wars returns for GBW5, the head-to-head holiday build-off where teams race the clock to design, construct, and defend the most jaw-dropping gingerbread creation in the room.

​Candy is your ammunition. Frosting is your mortar. Only one team walks away with the title, but everyone walks away having done something that matters.

​Building for a cause. Every year, Gingerbread Wars benefits the FLITE Center, Broward County's one-stop resource for young people aging out of foster care. FLITE guides these youth toward independence through housing, education, employment, and wellness support, so no young person faces the road to adulthood alone. When you compete, sponsor, or cheer from the sidelines, you're helping fund that mission.

​What to expect:

• ​Teams go head-to-head to build their gingerbread masterpiece against the clock

• ​Judging on creativity, structure, and holiday spirit

• ​Prizes, bragging rights, and five years of legendary GBW chaos

• ​Food, drinks, and a whole lot of heart for a great cause

​Whether you're a master piper or can barely hold a frosting bag, there's a spot for you. Come for the competition, stay for the cause.
