Reindeer-Shaped Pancakes

Denny's is Ushering in the Holidays with Its Rudolph Pancake Breakfast

— October 19, 2016 — Lifestyle
While fall may have just begun, Denny's is already ushering in the holiday season with the addition of the Rudolph Pancake Breakfast to its menu. Inspired by a classic Christmas tale, the hearty breakfast gives children and even adults an easy way to add a touch of holiday cheer to their morning meal.

Drawing inspiration from the tale of 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,' the Rudolph Pancake Breakfast features two buttermilk pancakes joined together to create the shape of a reindeer's head. Vanilla cream and chocolate are then used to make the eyes and nose, while two strips of turkey bacon serve as antlers. The breakfast is also served with a side of eggs and hash browns for a complete meal.

While Christmas may still be several months away, Denny's demonstrates that retailers are no longer waiting until after Halloween to begin celebrating the holiday season.

3. Hospitality - Hotels and resorts can incorporate holiday-inspired offerings into their breakfast menus and packages, providing guests with a memorable and festive stay experience.
