The UK's favourite pancake toppings broken down by city🥞

When looking at the favourite pancake toppings within cities lemon and sugar wins in a landslide victory, with the UK set to eat 54 million of these this Pancake Day.

But where it fails to take over is the Scottish strongholds of Glasgow and Edinburgh with these cities favouring maple syrup over any other topping.

Despite being top in Scotland, maple syrup doesn't look like it's going to be the nation's favourite any time soon!
