Creative Caterers for the Best Pancake Day Ever

Pancake Day, otherwise known as Shrove Tuesday, is one of the most much-loved occasions in Britain for good reason. What could be better than bringing people together with stacks of tasty, golden pancakes?

Pancake Day

Whether you enjoy yours drizzled with classic lemon and sugar or topped with indulgent spreads and fresh fruits, Pancake Day is the perfect excuse to indulge before the start of Lent.

Hold an Incredible Feast this Spring

Whether you’re holding a corporate or private celebration, Platter Up will ensure you have a pancake day you’ll never forget! We not only have our beloved pancake platters, but also the option of pop-up tables spread with a mouth-watering selection of toppings.

Whatever your event in London, we cover everything from private to corporate celebrations.

A Brief History of Pancake Day

Taking place the day before Ash Wednesday, pancake day marks the beginning of Lent. Traditionally, it was a way to use up ingredients like eggs, butter, and sugar before the 40-day fasting period leading up to Easter.

Over the years, people have become more creative with their pancakes, with everything from classic toppings like lemon and sugar, to more opulent creations such as crispy bacon and maple syrup.

At Platter Up, we believe Pancake Day should be a real celebration, which is why we’ve designed our catering services to make your event extra special. Here are a few reasons to pick our caterers in London for your pancake day this year.

Stunning Signature Pancake Platters: A Feast for the Senses

Our beautifully arranged pancake platters are a showstopper at any gathering. Freshly made and perfectly fluffy, these pancakes come with an array of delectable toppings to satisfy every craving.

Pancake Day

Whether your guests have a sweet tooth or prefer a savoury twist, we have something for everyone. Our toppings can include:

  • Sweet fillings and toppings, such as Nutella, Biscoff, maple syrup, fresh cream, or chocolate drizzle
  • Fruity delights. Whether you’re after bananas, strawberries, or other seasonal fruits, we can customise platters to your needs.

We used PlatterUp for our recent business networking event, and it was a huge success! The food was delicious and looked stunning. A big thank you to your team for making the process so easy, especially when I had to change the delivery time. Everything was delivered right on schedule, and the whole experience was completely seamless from start to finish. Thank you!

I had the privilege of using Platter Up for a resident event in our community, which was a summer breakfast. The team arrived and set up in such a short time, the set up was so lovely and the food was even more delicious. All the residents enjoyed it and they mentioned how the fruit was so fresh and it was a lovely spread. I was so impressed with how quickly they set up despite having a shorter time due to access issues into the building and Dania stayed to help throughout the event and was very pleasant. He cleared up along the way and was generally so professional and helpful. A great company and very professional. It helps that the food is also very nice and fresh and comes just as described. I would definitely recommend booking them for an event.

We have used Platter Up for numerous company events now and it as always been above and beyond exceptional every time!! Their communication is always prompt and ordering is an easy process. The first time we ordered some Brunch Platters which had something for everyone and left everyone wanting more. We've also ordered the set up Lunch & Breakfast Tables which were set up beautifully and the whole office commented on how amazing everything was on both tables. Our last order was for their new Hot & Cold Bowls Catered event for a very important event in the office. From our very first visit from Philip I was put at ease how everything would go smoothly and be as great as we hoped. On the day, the service team were incredible and really went that extra mile to make sure everyone enjoyed the offering. They set up and broke down the service table and left everything spotless after. Special notice has to go tot he Sausage & Mash... We literally had people picking lots to see who could take the leftovers home with them!! We'll definitely be using them again for many more of our office events and look forward to working with the whole team again. Special shout out to Philip who helped us set up everything for the Hot & Cold bowl event. He made everything super easy and really went that extra mile for our little office ❤️

I went to a friends special event last night and she used Platter Up for her catering. I was really impressed by the quality of the food and how beautifully it was presented. I didn’t know whether to photograph it or eat it! I decided to eat it and it was all so delicious. I will definitely consider using them when I next have a party.

I was absolutely over the moon with the service provided by Platter Up for my 30th birthday party. The booking process was super straightforward and the team were very helpful and communicative. The food was just outstanding; such a fantastic spread. It was all delicious and looked so aesthetically pleasing too. Safe to say that it was all demolished! I will absolutely use Platter Up again for future events - it was worth every penny!
