    Dad makes world's most incredible pancakes

    For anyone who's been showing off their smiley-face or heart-shaped pancakes, it's time to step up your game because jimspancakes.com has set the bar mighty high. "Just trying to make some cool pancakes for my daughter" is the tagline of his site, which chronicles the special breakfasts he makes for his extremely cute 3-year-old. How has Jim changed the game? First of all, he uses colored pancake batter. Second, as the art director of his own small ad agency he knows how to draw. Third, he works in three dimensions.

    From the pictures we gather that Allie gets a kick out of her dad's edible antics, but he admits with some of the more intricate designs, like his crowning achievement, the Ferris wheel pancake, she may go in the other room to watch morning cartoons.

    Although the Ferris wheel looks like it necessitated graph paper and an X-Acto knife in addition to pancake batter, Jim says it's all about squeeze bottles. "Those make it almost as easy as drawing with a pencil," he said. OK, but it takes like 6 hours right ? "No matter how complex it is, you only have about 5 minutes to make it before it burns so you have to work quick!" says Jim. "I usually try and think it through in my head first, then dive in and hope for the best."

      Very cool indeed. I bet mom's busy in the backround making a breakfeast the kid can actually eat
    • Justin Z  •  1 year 7 months ago
      Can the kid actually eat those pancakes? They must be pretty tough to stand up that way.
    • bman  •  1 year 7 months ago
      How about clapping for all the father's that stay at home and do what is right. No stunts, not goofy pancakes, just parenting to the core.

      I bet this kid has no discipline, is a brat, and in the end, the goofy pancakes will not do the job of parenting.

      I Love IT! Where can I get one? It would be awesome if he taught a class on how to do it. (It would also supply some extra income for him) More dads should be like Jim!!

      This is so cool, hope more dads would put in this type of effort. Great Job!!
