It’s Pancake Day on Tuesday 8th March! To celebrate, we’re offering the following pancake-related prizes to lovefood.com readers: 

The Pampered Chef’s ‘pancake package’

The first prize you can win is the complete package of pancake gadgets from The Pampered Chef.

Start your pancake preparation with Easy Read Measuring Cups (£21.00, pictured). These cups have a useful angled design, made with clear, durable plastic making it simple to read standard and metric measures from above. The flared rim prevents drips when pouring liquids, like water or eggs.

Meanwhile, The Pampered Chef’s heavy-duty Batter Bowls (Small Batter Bowl, £15.00, Classic Batter Bowl, £19.00) are perfect for creating your pancake mix. These dishwasher proof bowls feature convenient spouts and handles, making sure that you can whip up a storm but without the mess.

Add seasoning to your mixture with Adjustable Measuring Spoons (£7.25). The adjustable sliders create a seal for dry and liquid ingredients, and are removable for easy cleaning. To create the perfect batter with the minimal of effort, use The Pampered Chef’s Stainless Steel Whisk (£12.95).

To add a bit of zing to your pancakes, try the Citrus Press (£16.50).

The unique, coated cast aluminium design is rust-resistant and dishwasher-safe.

Finally, by using the 20-cm Sauté Pan (£45.00), your pancakes will be cooked to perfection due to the even heat distribution across the pan. 

A pancake magic kit

To make Pancake Day a truly magical experience this year, Lyle’s Golden Syrup has teamed up with food inventors Bompas & Parr to create a limited edition pancake magic kit - “a box of food and magic” - which they claim is the world’s first magic kit that uses only edible ingredients.

Each kit is handmade and contains a miniature edible laboratory of potions, syrups and powders. Using the kit, you can make pancakes that glow in the dark; create psychedelic swirling web-like fractal patterns; melt a jellied lion into your pancakes or even turn your pancake syrup topping into real gold.  They cannot make the pancakes disappear however – that’s the job of your guests.

The limited edition kit goes on display exclusively at Harvey Nichols in time for Pancake Day - worth £70 - and we have one to giveaway to a lucky lovefood.com reader. 

If you don’t win, visit http://www.lylesgoldensyrup.com/ to get fun tips on pancake magic you can perform at home. 

A pancake spice box

Pancake Day is, of course, Shrove Tuesday: the last day before the Christian holiday of Lent begins. It came about because, leading up to Lent, it was traditional to use up the indulgent, fatty ingredients in the cupboard before the very plain food or fasting during the next 40 days.

In that spirit, it seems entirely appropriate to use many of the spices that were once considered luxuries, so thespicery.com is offering lovefood.com readers the chance to win a delicious Pancake Day spicebox.

It contains all the spices and recipes you need to indulge yourself with a very special pancake dinner – whether that’s savoury pancakes with cheese, ham and a lovely smoky, slightly spicy seasoning followed by sweet pancakes filled with delicious cinnamon jam, vanilla sauce and toasted poppy seeds, or rich sweet caramelised apples flavoured with nutmeg and ginger.

Just make a big batch of batter, then use the fresh seasonings and simple recipes included in the box, and enjoy an extra special pancake night! 

Three innovative lemon squeezers

If, like Delia Smith, your favourite pancake topping is simply lemon and sugar, then you’ll love this novel gadget from lemon and sugar, then you’ll love a novel lemon squeezer from innovative gadget-makers SiliconeZone.

It’s mess-free. Simply cut the lemon in half, place in the lemon squeezer and squeeze. The juice runs freely through the holes but the pips and pith remain behind.

We have three to give away to lovefood.com readers!
