This reminds me I got Ninjabread Cookie Cutters as a Yule gift from the Friday Night Gaming Group a few years ago. I need to bust those out again.

Can we use them to play Catan?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the Catan cookbook actually included a recipe and decorating suggestions for exactly this.

Applying suitable sprinkles and things would be good. Let's see, for Pasture I'd use green crushed sugar with occasional round white sprinkles. (if you can find sheep-shaped sprinkles, even better!) Fields would be darker green, maybe with rows of longer-type tan ones. Forest would be dark green, either round or the long kind. Mountains would be topped with crushed Oreos. Maybe Hills could use golden Oreos? Pretzel sticks for roads. Oh, and there's a Desert tile type -- gold crushed sugar. No clue what to use for settlements or the robber.

Any hex-based game would work. Edible Ogre! Don't just eliminate tread units -- pull them off the gingerbread Ogre and eat them!

Many years ago at a Origins gaming convention we ran a game inspired by the Fungi from Candyland Murphys's Rule cartoon. We used blown up copies of a Candyland board and D&D combat rules. Made monsters from small marshmallows, gum drops, etc. with icing to stick things together. You kill it you get to eat it.
