Gingerbread Boy

The Gingerbread Boy is a character from the 2001 film, Barbie in the Nutcracker. He first appears after Clara and the Nutcracker arrive in Parthenia, hiding in the Gingerbread Village with the Peppermint Girl.

Story
The Gingerbread Boy and his sister, the Peppermint Girl, have been hiding in the abandoned village ever since they came back from gathering berries with Marzipan the horse. He is the first to blame Prince Eric for Parthenia's problems, leaving the Nutcracker to explain about the Prince to Clara. He and the Peppermint Girl accompany them, but they stay behind when Clara and the Nutcracker leave to search for the Sugar Plum Princess. Later on, he encourages the villagers to stand up to the Mouse King, although the results aren't perfect at first.

Personality
The Gingerbread Boy is suspicious of strangers; while his sister runs over to meet Clara and the Nutcracker, he is hesitant. He also comes across as being a bold and serious little boy who is quick to denounce Prince Eric.
