Pancake pen

A pancake pen is a cooking tool used to distribute batter onto a griddle or a pan. Typically constructed from a plastic squeeze bottle, a pancake pen is utilized to create creative pancake shapes known as pancake art, sometimes with food coloring added to the batter. The pancake pen is used by filling with batter and squeezing onto a hot griddle, usually lubricated with some form of oil to prevent sticking to the pan.
