This is a photograph of the 1993 official White House Gingerbread House that was dubbed the "House of Socks". It was created by White House Executive Pastry Chef Roland Mesnier in honor of President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton's cat, Socks. The gingerbread house is a to-scale replica of White House complete with 20 marzipan versions of Socks playing around the house. The architectural details were created with carefully pipped icing and illuminated with working miniature floodlights.
