Pancake day is coming up so we've been getting creative in the Goupie test kitchen.
There's nothing wrong with the classics- lemon and sugar, golden syrup, chocolate spread -but it's good to have a little fun with your pancake toppings. So here are our Goupie-inspired suggestions:
Smores pancakes:
Create the perfectly sweet, ooey-gooey treat with toasted biscuit, squishy marshmallows, and melted chocolate. Simply top your pancakes with flaked chocolate, mini marshmallows, and a sprinkle of toasted biscuit crumbs and let the heat do all the magic.
You will need:
- Mini marshmallows (find them here)
- Biscuit crumbs (find them here)
- Chocolate (find it here)
Dark chocolate and hazelnut pancakes:
Get dreamy and indulgent with our rich 70% chocolate and whole toasted hazelnuts for a grown-up take on old-school nutella. Simply coat your pancake in flaked chocolate and as many hazelnuts (chopped or whole) as you like.
You will need:
- Chocolate (find it here)
- Hazelnuts (find them here)
Sweet and spicy pancakes:
Try something different with a unique, crunchy combo. Pairing the firey, chewy punch of crystallised ginger with the crunch and sweetness of chocolate coated honeycomb, your pancake will be one to remember.
You will need:
- Crystallised ginger (find it here)
- Chocolate coated honeycomb (find it here)
Citrus twist pancakes:
Take the classic lemon and sugar and turn it on its head by using chocolate covered candied peel. Adding an irresistible chew and rich chocolatey goodness, a little chopped up citrus treat will go a long way. For extra indulgence, add in a little flaked orange chocolate for good measure.
You will need:
- Chocolate coated candied lemon peel (find it here)
- Chocolate coated candied orange peel (find it here)

Salted chocolate almond pancakes:
Sweet, sophisticated, and lightly salted, these unique pancakes are a delight. The delicate Maldon salt flakes cut through the deliciously smooth chocolate whilst the flaked almonds add a light crunch and creamy nuttiness.
You will need:
- Salted chocolate discs (find them here)
- Flaked Almonds (find them here)
Something savoury:
For those who like something more savoury, try a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds or walnuts over the top of some plain yogurt, a little cheese, or a whole bunch of nooch.

- Pumpkin Seeds (find them here)
- Walnut Halves (find them here)
