Made with the usual pancake ingredients, this recipe incorporates Brut champagne. Though the boozy bubbles add a tingling kick, they also give this dish great texture and more fluff. The delicate hotcakes are topped with a [smashed strawberry syrup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberries-crme-pancake-waffle-mix) that has also been infused with Brut champagne. The boozy addition allows the sauce to come together quickly, along with giving it a crisp and tart flavor. Though this batch of pancakes is made with a Brut champagne, the recipe can be altered to incorporate a Sec, Demi-Sec or Doux champagne. Strawberry Champagne Pancakes go well with a side of fruit, while also making the perfect main course for any [brunch arrangements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pur-simple). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Champagne-infused Recipes:** Explore new ways to incorporate champagne into recipes to add unique flavors and textures. - **Boozy Brunches:** Discover innovative ideas for boozy brunch menus that offer exciting twists on traditional dishes. - **Gourmet Pancakes:** Embrace the trend of elevating classic pancake recipes with gourmet ingredients and flavors. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunities for food and beverage companies to create innovative products and recipes using champagne as a premium ingredient. - **Hospitality:** Hotels, restaurants, and cafes can capitalize on the growing demand for unique brunch experiences by offering champagne-infused dishes like Strawberry Champagne Pancakes. - **Event Planning:** Event planners can incorporate boozy brunch concepts and champagne-infused recipes into their offerings, creating memorable and sophisticated experiences for clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gourmet Pancake Stack Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fancy-pancake-menu.md) - [Strawberry Pancake Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberries-crme-pancake.md) - [Cinnamon Toast-Infused Pancakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-toast-pancakes.md) - [Dessert-Filled Pancake Dishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuffed-cheesecake-pancakes.md) - [Ready-to-Pour Mango Mimosas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ready-to-serve-mimosas.md) - [Fruity Protein Pancakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-protein-pancakes.md) - [Fruity Hand-Harvested Rosés](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piperheidsieck-ros-sauvage.md) - [Pancake-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pancake-inspired-fragrance.md) - [Indulgent Breakfast Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pur-simple.md)
