The Brits surely know how to celebrate Shrove Tuesday, or Pancake Day, with a lovely meal full of pleasure food, like pancakes. Tuesday, February 17 is this year’s celebration, and we’ve got a tasty video below to celebrate.
The Star Wars UK YouTube channel wishes all of us a happy Pancake Day with this delicious video full of edible Star Wars characters, like Yoda, Boba Fett, a Stormtrooper and Darth Vader. Apparently, these chefs have a soft spot for the Dark Side.
Hit the jump below to see how strong the Force is with these foodie artists as they create delicious snacks for your Pancake Day celebrations.
Traditionally, Shrove Tuesday is a time to look to the divine and seek forgiveness before the Christian holiday of Lent. In countries like the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and Canada, the tradition is to eat pancakes before having to start the fasting process of Lent as well.
Watching these culinary artists at work, I can’t help but marvel at the way they use the cooking pancake batter as a way to shade and color their work into incredibly recognizable characters. This is food I’d have a hard time eating, it’s so beautiful.
Adding a little Star Wars fun to this tasty tradition is something I think we all find palatable, for sure. Happy Pancake Day from all of us here at Cult of Mac, and may the Forks Be With You.
