Our Creative Journey
Gingerbread University was started by Professor Frederick H. Terry Sr., a retired college teacher and co-founder of Lobster Roll, Inc., along with his son Rick. They wanted a place where families could sit down and make something together the old-fashioned way. Everything is still cut and baked by hand in our own kitchen. It is not a class and nobody has to be good at it. Toddlers press candy into icing while grandparents pipe careful little windows, and everyone leaves holding something they made. We operate from Eastern Long Island, where the Terry family has twelve generations of roots, and a substantial portion of our profits goes to The Smile Train, which funds cleft palate surgery for children.
