I assume you are talking about period gingerbread and not that insipid.. er
more highly aerated modern gingerbread. Check this file in the FOOD-SWEETS
section of my Florilegium for recipes, hints and directions:
gingerbread-msg (39K) 5/25/99 Medieval gingerbread. Recipes.

I believe the techniques for this are covered in this file in the same
section:
candy-msg (136K) 9/23/99 Period candy. Recipes. Candied fruit peels.
sotelties-msg (152K) 4/15/99 Sotelties and Warners - decorated food.
(I think the first one is the better choice. If not check the second)
