Most likely too much bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) was added. Bicarbonate of soda is an extremely active raising agent and if you add too much then the gingerbread will rise up a lot during baking, then sink back fairly dramatically.

A few years ago, the classic loaf was discontinued, but they did bring it back and now offer it seasonally.

You can store gingerbread cake in the fridge in an airtight sealed container or tightly wrapped, and it will last up to a week. Keep in mind though, the longer it is in the fridge the faster it will dry out. Gingerbread cake actually freezes really well!

Oleato Gingerbread Oatmilk Latte

“The combination of the Starbucks Blonde Espresso with the steamed oatmilk infused with olive oil is nice and balanced with the gingerbread syrup uplifting all those spice notes. It's cozy and warming with an enjoyable dash of holiday flavors.”

To keep our gingerbread recipe from sinking in the middle, we incorporated the baking soda with the wet ingredients and roughed up some of the batter to strengthen the flour, giving our gingerbread a more sturdy texture while maintaining its moistness.

Under-baking can cause a sunken cake and over-baking can cause a dry one, so making sure your gingerbread is properly baked is critical! Gingerbread is inherently slightly dense and heavy in texture, but each bite is perfectly flavored and moist and just melts in your mouth.

Just melt the sugar in a pan over low heat. You want to allow it to turn brown, but make sure not to burn it (otherwise it won't taste so great). Then take your gingerbread house pieces, dip the edges in melted sugar and hold them together for a few seconds. That's it!

Is Starbucks gingerbread vegan? ›

Opting for nondairy milk and no whipped cream will make Starbucks' gingerbread latte—a favorite of many—vegan. The nutmeg, gingerbread, and warm spices make for a delicious way to get in the holiday mood.

For making the gingerbread house dough, you will need the following ingredients: flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, unsalted butter, light brown sugar, molasses, an egg and vanilla extract.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together sugar and butter until smooth and light. Add the egg and molasses then mix well. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients together: flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir to combine.
