The Dr. Oetker American Style Pancake Mix is headed to the UK market to provide consumers with an easy way to craft a classic American breakfast with a decidedly dessert-inspired twist.
The product starts off with the brand's signature American-style pancake mix that only requires milk or plant-based milk to be prepared and is infused with the essence of chocolate to give it richer, fuller flavor. The pancake mix comes in packets that will make six pancakes, while it's also great for making waffles. The product is arriving for Pancake Day and will be in UK stores until April.
Head of Marketing, Dr. Oetker - Cake Jennifer Johnson spoke on the new Dr. Oetker American Style Pancake Mix saying, "Our American Style pancakes proved hugely popular with consumers and, with pancakes and brunches growing as trends, we are pleased to bring a new product to the table which diversifies the offering in a limited market. With more people choosing to stay at home rather than eat out, our pancake mixes are an easy way for low skilled bakers to try their hand at something new and serve up their favourite brunch dish in the comfort of their own home."
