Definition
Resembling or characteristic of gingerbread in appearance, style, or excessive decoration; often used to describe overly ornate or showy design.
Etymology
Adjective form of 'gingerbread', which originally referred to a spiced cake but became metaphorical for decorative, ornate architectural styles (especially Victorian gingerbread trim).
Kelly Says
Calling someone's house 'gingerbready' is a wonderful example of how food words become design critiques—Victorian houses with lots of fancy wooden trim really do look decorated like cake!
