*I was not paid for this review! I received this product free of charge for my honest opinion!
Lately I've been seeing a lot of pictures and videos of people making artistic pancakes with pancake pens. I'v never done it before and was thrilled when Smokeyjazz offered me a pen of my own to try out!
THe smokeyjazz pancake pen is very simply made, but delivers amazing results! The pen itself measures 11.5 inches long and 3" wide which seems big, but it actually fits in the hand very well and is easy to handle. The pen is made of durable contoured plastic and the tip is heat resistant up to 600 degrees! You definitely don't have to worry about the tip melting if you touch it to the pan! The pen has a screw bottom on one end for filling with batter. The other end has the pen tip with a nice clear lid that helps keep it from leaking. You can also easily store extra batter in the fridge as well!
Filling it was very easy to do. I simply mixed up my desired amount of batter, unscrewed the bottom cap and poured the batter in. The opening was nice and large and very easy to pour the batter in without it spilling all over the place. I barely spilled a single drop and that was when I was using a spatula to scrape the bowl clean. The pen holds up to 3 cups of batter which is actually a lot! I only did a small batch of 6 pancakes for me, my husband and my son and it wasn't even halfway full.
Using the pancake pen was incredibly easy. For having such a wide tips, it actually created some pretty fine lines. Me and my six year old son had a ton of fun coming up with different designs to draw with the pen. The possibilities are endless! Just make sure that you don't take too long drawing with your pen before flipping, or else they'll get a little toasty on the parts you first drew in! The pen was very comfortable and very easy to control, my six year old was even able to handle it all by himself.
This pancake pen is a really fun way to get kids involved with cooking and makes them excited about actually eating! I can't wait to get some more experience with this and create some more awesome pancakes!
