Pancake Day is one of the best food-centric celebrations in the UK, marking the start of the Christian Lent period before Easter.
Supermarket shelves are piled high with shake and make mixes and an array of topping choices - with fun frying pan kits and tools to ensure everything runs smoothly.
But after a long and stressful day at work, sometimes the last thing you want to be doing on a Tuesday evening in March is flipping pancakes and cleaning splattered batter off the oven splashback.
