"There’s something wonderfully comforting about pancakes that permits them to bypass all rules of dining etiquette. Perhaps it’s because they are too delicious for their own good, but somehow pancakes manage to be a respectable treat for brunch or dessert... we’re not judging. In fact, they’re so popular that they have their own day of celebration – Shrove Tuesday in Britain and Fat Tuesday in America (both celebrated on 13th February this year). 

 

Just in time for Pancake Day, and with the help of the talented chefs from TART London – Jemima Jones and Lucy Carr-Ellison – pancakes have been given a scented update. Presenting Roasted Hazelnut and Spelt Pancakes with a Blackberry Syrup and Bay Leaf Ice Cream. Utterly exquisite, with an unexpected twist. Lucy says: ‘We wanted to play with the ingredients of Jo Malone London scents in our recipes. We decided to hero Blackberry & Bay, as we always use bay leaves in cooking but primarily in savoury dishes. It was fun to use them in a sweet dish, creating an ice cream by infusing bay with cream. It’s such a surprise when you try it – it’s floral with a spicy edge.’" Jo Malone - The Talk of The Townhouse
