I love this pillow set design by Todd von Bastiaans and Bryan McCarthy. They really do look like pancakes with pats of butter!

Football Pancakes

Posted by John Farrier in Food & Drink, Living on September 15, 2011 at 4:49 pm

We’ve previously featured the works of Jim Belosic of Jim’s Pancakes, including his dinosaur pancakes, Tetris pancakes, and pancakes in the shape of a crane. Recently he made these dandy football pancakes. Does this remind anyone else of childhood games of paper football?

Looking for a little extra oomph to the traditional Mother’s Day breakfast in bed this weekend? Give pancake art a whirl. With a squeeze bottle and a little practice, you can produce some results that are pretty sweet (with or without syrup).

Daisy Wants Pancakes Now!

Daisy and Caspar are dogs. Every Saturday, their hoomin makes pancakes for them. Caspar is very mellow and waits patiently for pancakes to be inserted into his mouth. Daisy, as you can see, is not.

Canned Pancake-Flavored Milkshake

Posted by John Farrier in Food & Drink on August 2, 2010 at 2:31 pm

A Japanese food manufacturer called Morinaga produces canned milkshakes that are flavored like pancakes:

Morinaga, on the other hand, simply strives to imitate the taste of breakfast (and a Morinaga Hotcake breakfast at that) without worrying overly much about vitamins and so forth. They’re not seeking to provide a substitute for brekky, ion other words, just a reminder of its glorious, soothing flavor.

Each can of Morinaga Hotcake Milkshake contains 280 grams (10 oz) and costs 120 yen or about $1.40 when it goes on sale September 8th.

What do you think: awesome or disgusting?

Jim’s Pancakes

Posted by Queuebot in Art, Food & Drink on May 8, 2010 at 4:52 pm

These pancakes are amazing! Jim likes to make pancakes for his 3-year-old daughter Allison. He’s become so good at it that he photographs his pancake creations to share. You’ll see pancakes in the shape of animals, buildings, and even jewelry! He says this crane is one of his favorites.

Rapid Pancake Sorting Robot

Posted by John Farrier in Food & Drink, Science & Tech, Video Clips on October 2, 2009 at 9:53 am


(YouTube Link)

This video by ABB Robotics demonstrates a sorting robot used in a pancake factory. The action starts at about 1:15, when the robot begins sorting 400 pancakes per minute, switching off so that specific sizes are in a specific order. Just imagine how we could benefit if this machine was applied to soylent green production.

ChefStack Automatic Pancake Machine

Posted by John Farrier in Food & Drink, Gadgets, Hacks & Mods on August 8, 2009 at 4:05 pm

Although it’s pricey at $3,500, this kitchen gadget will churn out 200 pancakes in one hour. The manufacturer is marketing it toward convenience stores and cafeterias, but I’d say that there’d be a strong demand from individual homes.

World Pancake Stack Record

Posted by Miss Cellania in Food & Drink, World Records on February 24, 2009 at 12:04 pm

That’s a lot of pancakes! 672 of them, to be exact, and a pair of chefs at a Scottish hotel think the stack of pancakes may get them into the Guinness Book of World Records.

Sean McGinlay and Natalie King of Glasgow’s Hilton Grosvenor hotel measured their pancake tower at 29.5 inches (75cm) – beating the current title by 0.4in.

The chefs mixed about 100 eggs, more than 17 pints of milk, 11lbs of flour and 6.6lbs of butter for the challenge, a hotel spokeswoman said.

The hotel’s general manager Stuart Nelson said: ‘It was a bit shaky towards the end but somehow we managed to pull it off.

The current pancake stack record is 29.1 inches, set by a Slovenian team last year. Link -via J-Walk Blog
