Get the frying pans ready and start your training, it's that time of the year again. Pancake Day (Shrove Tuesday) and Valentine's Day fall within the same week this year, so I thought it would be sweet to combine recipes for the two and offer some hearty pancake delights to cover both special events.

I know how much they love making pancakes at the Kids' Cookery School - breaking the eggs, mixing the ingredients together, seeing a smooth, creamy batter result.
