Ever thought pancakes could be tacos? 🌮🍓

Try this fun twist on dessert with soft, golden pancake-style taco shells made with Tate & Lyle Golden Caster Sugar, filled with fluffy whipped cream and juicy fresh strawberries.

Whip the cream: Whip your cream until light, fluffy and ready to pipe.

Fill: Add a generous layer of whipped cream to each pancake taco, then top with sliced fresh strawberries.

Finish: Give them a final dusting of Tate & Lyle's Cane Icing Sugar for an extra sweet touch. ✨
