Colorful Pancake Creations

A Doting Father Turns Breakfast into Works of Art for His Son

— September 8, 2014 — Lifestyle
Parents indulge their children every day in some small ways, yet it is hard to tell whether these colorful pancake creations are made for the father behind their artistry or for his son. Full of detail and complexity, they could easily be displayed in an art gallery rather than gobbled up by a little tyke. Talk about creative fuel.

The colorful pancake creations were published online by Reddit user ptgkbgte, who is friends with the doting dad and creator. From soaring skyscrapers to ferocious dinosaurs and more adorable animals, the colorful pancake creations are set apart from other similar breakfast feats by their use of food dyes. By coloring the batter, the dad is able to create illustration-like details that are mind-boggling. How could they be eaten?
