Re: The Cafe Bar
Well...........Crumpets and pikelets are made from a pancake type mixture which has had bicarbonate of soda added.
Pikelets mixture is just a spoonful placed onto a hot plate hence the irregular shape and thinness of them.
Crumpets mixture is spooned into a pastry ring on a hot plate hence the thickness and defined shape.
The bubbles are created by the bicarbonate of soda bubbling when it gets warm.
The way they are produced also explains why they are only brown on one side.
Bakery lesson for today is now complete!!!!

Re: The Cafe Bar
I am! What's not sensible about stiletto wearing crumpet pixies 
Now you've spoilt the mystery
So have you made crumpets? I want to learn to do proper cooking and baking. Don't think I'll have time for a course before I go though!

Re: The Cafe Bar
It's ok Mandy, that's still how it really happens - the thing about the bicarb is just a rumour spread by the pixies. Otherwise everyone would want their own stiletto wearing crumpet pixie and then they'd start getting exploited and then - well you know the rest....
