I don't know, I thought that they came from the West Midlands Cjdkoh (talk) 20:34, 4 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

This was mistakenly put on the page itself, so I moved it here:

Pikelets are NOT crumpets. Nor are they Scotch pancakes.

Pikelet - also known as a Pikelet?

edit

Why does it mention on the Pikelet page that a pikelet is also known as a "pikelet" in Britian?

Isn't that like saying "A dog is also known as..... a dog"?

"Pikelet may refer to: A small, thick pancake, generally in Australia, New Zealand and parts of Britain. Also known in parts of the United Kingdom as a Pikelet." Frognsausage (talk) 08:49, 16 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Clarify what is meant by Scooter.

edit

"Pikelet, a North Staffordshire delicacy. A thicker form of oatcake with raisins added. Traditionally enjoyed on a scooter."

I'm not certain what is meant by 'scooter' here, it would seem strange for a type of food to be traditionally be eaten on a 2 wheeled motorised vehicle. Given that 'Pikelet' is a word almost exclusively used in a colloquial context there is a strong possibility that, in this case, 'scooter' might mean something else. Can someone include a link or source to clarify what is meant? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.18.225.5 (talk) 13:55, 17 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

The purpose of this page is unclear

Pikelets

edit

For people from Australia and NZ pikelets are not pancakes they are two different things. Whilst it may just be a small pancake they are considered 2 different things. Pikelets are eaten at morning or afternoon tea or high tea whereas pancakes are a breakfast or desert. Please see recipe tin eats page for a great explanation. Not sure how to link here sorry. Also sorry advance if I’ve missed something and this is already been picked up 202.172.120.184 (talk) 06:02, 4 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
