A Guide to Pancake Day | Teevolution

Flip It Good: A Teevolution Guide to Pancake Day Shenanigans                       Pancake Day – the one glorious day of the year when it’s totally acceptable to eat your body weight in batter and call it a celebration. Whether you're a lemon-and-sugar purist, a Nutella fiend, or someone who believes pancakes should be stacked higher than your weekend to-do list, we’re here to say: go for it, mate.
At Teevolution, we take Pancake Day as seriously as we take our t-shirt game – with a wicked sense of humour and a big ol’ dollop of sustainability. So, grab your spatula, don your stretchiest tee, and let’s get flipping.

A Brief (and Slightly Questionable) History of Pancake Day
Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday if you want to sound fancy, dates back centuries. It was originally a way to use up eggs and milk before Lent, but let’s be honest – it’s now just an excuse to inhale pancakes at an alarming rate. The Brits love a good food-based tradition, and this one’s up there with cramming mince pies into December and arguing over whether a Jaffa Cake is a biscuit or a cake (it’s a cake, by the way).

How to Nail Pancake Day Like a Pro
1. The Batter Basics – Whether you’re team classic, dairy-free, or going full protein-packed, a good pancake starts with a solid batter. Pro tip: if your first pancake turns out a bit tragic, don’t worry – it’s practically a rite of passage.
2. Flip It Like You Mean It – Flipping a pancake is a high-risk, high-reward sport. Go too low, and you’re just turning it over. Go too high, and your ceiling gets a snack. Aim for a smooth flick of the wrist and prepare for greatness (or a kitchen disaster).
3. Toppings: The Great Debate – Traditionalists swear by lemon and sugar, but we say go wild. Maple syrup, peanut butter, bacon, chocolate – no judgment here. If it fits on a pancake, it’s fair game.

Teevolution’s Eco-Friendly Pancake Day Tips
Because we love pancakes, but we love the planet even more.
* Ditch the plastic – If you’re grabbing ingredients from the shop, bring your own bags and opt for packaging-free where possible.
* Use up what you’ve got – Pancake batter is the ultimate fridge-clearer. Got some bananas on their last legs? Mash ‘em in. Oat milk that’s dangerously close to the expiry date? Chuck it in.
* Compost the leftovers – If you somehow have leftovers (teach us your ways), pop them in the compost rather than the bin.

Dress for Pancake Day Success
We fully support wearing your comfiest, stretchiest tee while devouring an ungodly amount of pancakes. Luckily, our organic cotton tees are as breathable as they are stylish – perfect for post-pancake lounging. And if you happen to drop some syrup on it? No worries, our tees wash up a treat.
So, whether you’re flipping with flair or just there for the eating, make this Pancake Day one to remember. And if you need a fresh new tee to celebrate in style, you know where to find us.
Happy flipping, legends!
