LONDON -- Put away your woefully inadequate DIY gingerbread houses. Someone's just made a gingerbread monument.

London's iconic Big Ben has been recreated in gingerbread, fondant icing and sweets by Buns of Funbakery as part of an exhibition at historic house Holkham Hall in Norfolk, UK.

It goes without saying that the model is not to scale. Big Ben's 320-foot towering presence would be pretty tough to recreate in baked goods. This model is five foot high.

The tower -- which took a year to plan and make -- was constructed using 1,400 gilded gingerbread men, 12kg (26lbs) of coloured sugar paste and thousands of sprinkles.

The gingerbread Big Ben has been created as part of the Christmas festivities at the 25,000 acre country estate.

The monument is the centrepiece in a clock-themed exhibition in Holkham Hall's North Dining Room.

The monument is surrounded by a lawn, street lamps and miniature Christmas trees, which have all been intricately created in icing.

People wanting to get a good look at the magical creation can visit the hall on a candlelit tour of the house's state rooms. Tickets cost £16 ($19.81) and can be purchased online.
