Bubble gum would be best...... if you chew it first it stays good and sticky a long time!
What does this question have to do with DIY repairs?

i would use 2-part epoxy.

don't let the dog eat your ginger bread house

but probably the answer is the icing because the material does not desolve the gingerbread

Be kind of a waste to use a glue that is much stronger than the gingerbread---I'd use a home made icing.

This is a DIY site after all---

Try them all --take pictures--and get back to us---

True! It'd be a real PITA to build one only to have the city come along and tell you to tear it down! ....especially if Hansel and Gretel are busy!
