& win Your very own Pancake Hamper.

I don’t quite fancy myself as a Picasso, Salvador Dali or a Turnover but when I was sent an amazing hamper of Abra-ca-Debora pancakes and some mystery ingredients, I just had to give it a try. Remember the word try there as my efforts were not brilliant but I tried.

A wicker hamper filled with various food items, including packets of Urban Fruit snacks, jars of honey, Nutella, preserves, flatbreads, a wrapped lemon, biscuits, and a card on top. The contents are neatly arranged and look colourful and inviting.
Inside my hamper I found everything I could possibly need to create my Pancake Masterpieces. I decided on two pieces of well known art and gave it my best shot.

I give you my very own interpretation of Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. 

A pancake on a white plate is decorated to resemble a face and body. Chocolate pieces form hair and a hat; flaked almonds, sultanas, and dried apricots create eyes, a mouth, arms, and a dress; all sit on a colourful, patterned table mat.

I used dried apricots, slices of chocolate orange, raisins, chopped almonds and of course a Abra-ca-Debora Sweet Pancake. Everything in the picture is completely edible, I should know as I ate it shortly after taking this picture. It was delicious.

A pancake on a white plate is decorated to resemble a face, using dried apricots for hair, raisins for a mouth, slivered almonds for facial features, chocolate spread for eyes, and a chocolate segment for a smiling mouth. The background shows a colourful tablecloth.

Next up is my slightly dodgy version of Scream by Edvard Munch.

For this one I used dried apricots, raisins, chocolate orange slices, chopped almonds, 2 silver cake decorations as eyes and nutella spread for added decoration. 

I had imagined it to be much easier to create than it actually was but I’m quite happy with how it turned out. What do you think? Is it a worthy effort?

A round crêpe on a plate is decorated with pieces of chocolate, almonds, and raisins arranged upright to resemble a minaret or tower, with scattered sliced almonds at the base and a pink serviette visible in the bottom right corner.

Just for fun I had one last go at getting creative with my Pancakes and replicated the Eiffel Tower. What do you think? I think this was my best effort out of the three I did.

If you could create your own Pancake Masterpiece, what would you make?
