Fluffy Pancakes vs Regular Pancakes

What’s the Difference?

Pancakes are a breakfast classic, but not all pancakes are created equal. If you’ve ever wondered how Japanese-style fluffy pancakes differ from your traditional short stack, you’re not alone. Let’s dive into the delicious world of pancakes and explore what makes fluffy pancakes so special — and why they’re worth the hype.

What Are Regular Pancakes?

Regular pancakes, also known as American-style pancakes, are:

  • Flat and round

  • Usually made with flour, milk, eggs, baking powder, and butter

  • Cooked quickly on a griddle

  • Slightly crispy on the edges and soft in the center

They’re often stacked high, served with butter and syrup, and loved for their comforting simplicity.

What Are Fluffy Pancakes?

Fluffy pancakes — like the ones served at Fluffy Fluffy Go — are inspired by Japanese soufflé pancakes. They’re:

  • Extra thick and cloud-like in texture

  • Made by folding whipped egg whites into the batter for a souffle-like rise

  • Steamed and cooked low and slow

  • Light, airy, and jiggly!

Unlike regular pancakes, these are visually dramatic, often served with fresh fruit, cream, or sweet sauces for a café-style experience.
