Pancake Syrup
© Denzil Green
Usually based on corn syrup, Pancake Syrups are meant to taste something like maple syrup and to be put on (North American style) pancakes.
Though it is fashionable to knock Pancake Syrup as being a “cheap imitation of maple syrup”, these syrups can be tasty in their own right, are great on pancakes, and make a great addition to baked beans, etc.
Many people in fact prefer Pancake Syrup to maple syrup, as maple syrup is very expensive, and the taste of Pancake Syrup can be less intensely sweet.
