Allie doesn’t know who Spongebob is, this came through as a request from a reader on facebook. She’ll probably love the show in a few years, but for now we’re sticking to Nick Jr. and PBS. Anyway, he wasn’t too hard to make even though I managed to overcook his teeth and make him look like he drinks way too much coffee.
The brown color is cocoa, the red is colored with strawberry jelly and the yellow is a tiny amount of stale turmeric. Don’t use fresh turmeric because you can taste it. If it’s older it loses its flavor but maintains the coloring potential. A reader suggested it to me as an alternative to regular food dye if you are concerned about food coloring.
Fantastic!! I often try to make your pancakes for my kiddos, but they usually come out overdone and you can’t see the color that well… LOL
This is so amazing! I had to show it to my husband, since he’s such a fan.
jajajajaj nice work jim..! getting the entire world in pancakes! any special for the sudafrica 2010 world cup?
Wow, it’s actually really really accurate! Great job!
WOW!
Annatto (or saffron, but that’s more expensive) will also give you a natural yellow color without the strong taste of turmeric.
I’ve done my own version of Pancake Art for years, but I’ve got nothing on you. You are amazing.
Love the uniqueness of the pancakes. I saw a blurt about your site in our local newspaper and had to check it out. What fun! Your pancakes have give me great ideas on how to amuse my husband since he is the no. 1 pancake lover in this house.
have you ever tried the statue of liberty? my friend and i think that would be awesome!
These are fantastic! A friend referred me to your blog a few minutes ago, and I’ve already shared a link to this on Facebook. I look forward to browsing through the rest of your site.
great site – really love your pancakes – I have some beetroot powder which I can use for red dye instead of the usual red food dye. I need to try some pancake creativity now that I have seen the amazing stuff you can do
may i know your recipe for your pancake batter? =]
Thank you so much for the Spongebob pancake! Dash and I were THRILLED when we saw it today (we’ve been laptop-less for a while, due to technical difficulties), and she was so excited that you said it was for a “fan”!
Thanks so much!
Your fans,
Wendy and Dashiell

Way to go, Jim! You’re a true pancake master.
I love SpongeBob! That’s pretty amazing!
(I’m looking for a video of how to make this … is there one?)
I can already make pancakes that don’t look like pancakes!
Hi Jim,
You should totally open a pancake shop! People would love it!!
Julie
You are a verrrryyyyy talented Daddy!
This. Is. GREAT! <— Spongebob quote. Saw you on Yahoo and had to come check out all your amazing pancakes. Awesome seems like an understatement, but I'll be coming back for more! Fantastic creativity and skill!
You are officially the coolest Dad in the entire world….
I think you do a GREAT GREAT job!!!
You are creative! Well done.
you sir, are an awesome dad.
Your creations are great. You should consider working with cake. You have such a talent; I bet it would be a great progresson.
..no this is my favorite, I can’t decide between the unicorn and this!
Jim,
These are truly amazing! These pancakes would intertain everyone and yes I agree with above poster, you should really open you up a pancake shop and make things I guess that wouldn’t take too long, since you’ll have a heck of alot of customers.
You’re a wonderful father to take all the time you do just to make breakfast fun, exciting and good for Allie. Thanks for being one of those great dads out there.
I’m going to have to try to master something in the kitchen with pancakes.
Your daughter is the luckiest girl in the world! I make letters and numbers for my kids, but this is just sooo much better.
WOW!! I bet my little bros would love to eat a spongebob for breakfast! yup you got a really cool talent Jim! keep doin’ whatcha doin’!
I don’t if anyone has suggested this but you could also use saffron to get an orange or yellow color without using dye and unlike turmeric it has a flavor that could work with your pancakes.
I guess her ever ordering pancakes out in a restaurant is going to be a big disappointment! (grin) Great job Dad.
omg those are amazing the carasol one i wanted to ride it lol
As hyper is Sponge Bob is I am sure that he does drink loads of coffee, so your depiction of his dark teeth is probably more accurate. He probably has them professionally whitened……..lol. Great job with the pancakes. They are amazing and your kids will treasure the time you take to make them pancakes like no other.
