For those with a sweet tooth, Pancake Day can be a gluttonous day. A day to enjoy all the sweet toppings on the fluffy pancakes. One Tiktoker took on an obscene challenge where she had to eat a £35 stack of pancakes in 15 minutes and then you get it for free along with a bottle of prosecco.
Internet personality Kate Ovens took on the challenge at the Polo Bar on Liverpool Street. Kate takes on a variety of food challenges as such and her TikTok is full of these attempts.
In this video, we see the stack of 12 pancakes arrive at the table, glistening in cream with strawberries and blueberries nestled between the layers. Your arteries are already screaming at the sight of the diabetes monster in front of you. Kate even mutters “I’m so stupid” when she watches it.

The waiter, armed with a stopwatch, then counts down and Kate’s challenge begins. She rips off a pancake and continues to attack the bar. Cream all over, but undeterred, Kate continues to eat in an impressive display of stomach endurance.
She complains about the heavy cream, drops some food in her lap and wipes the endless cream off her face but just keeps going. After four minutes the pile is heavily depleted, and after eight it’s a load of broken pieces.
When it hits the 14 minute mark, the waiter decides to reward Kate with prosecco for her efforts as it looks like there’s only a creamy mess left on her plate. A brave effort indeed.
