 Differences
Difference Between Hot Cakes and Pancakes: What is the difference between
the two? Talking about the ingredients of these both are the same. The definition
of hotcake is "a pancake". The definition of pancake is a cake batter that is fried
on both sides. At the end of everything is the same, but everything can change
in the way of preparing them.

 Legend

The legend of Pancake Day begins in 1445. On

Shrove Tuesday, Christian households use
perishables before the long Lenten fast. And when
the bell of the commemoration of the church rings,
all the parishioners ask forgiveness for their sins.

The story tells us that a startled housewife lost

track of time and started making pancakes for
lunch. When she heard the bells, she knew she was
late and ran to church with her apron and a pan full
of pancakes. At that moment a tradition was born.
 TODAY
■ Pancake races are celebrated all over the world. This tradition happens on
Shrove Tuesday, in which the prize is a kiss from the sacristan, from the
church and they receive a blessing from the vicar. The race consists of
running with the pan in hand, flipping his pancake all the way, 451 yards
to St. Peter & St. Paul Parish Church.

 Competitions
Currently, the contestants race to get to first, covering 380 meters, throwing
pancakes and scooping them back into the pan along the way without falling
off.
Participants must wear a suitable apron and scarf. Around these races stalls are
set up, shows such as live music... Without a doubt, if you have the opportunity
to celebrate a day like this, you will have a great time.
