Otherworld’s tag lines are: “Guilt-free baking” and “Better-for-you mixes you’ll actually enjoy.”

Likely targeted towards the vegan and gluten-free crowds that are used to a certain taste. 😐

It’s a bit misleading to say: “Otherworld looks and tastes just like your favorite breakfast and dessert, but without any of the unhealthy ingredients.” They do not taste just like my favourite breakfasts or desserts, and not just because pancakes and waffles don’t fall into either of these categories, but because they just don’t taste anything like my favourite waffles or pancakes.

Overall Impression

It’s interesting how they tended to be small. Usually when I make pancakes they are quite big. I probably could have made a bigger one, but it’s like they chose to be little medallions.

I don’t recommend tasting the batter. Once cooked, I thought for a relatively healthy treat they tasted pretty good. Tony disagrees. He wouldn’t even finish the tiny pancake I gave him. They do have a very strong taste of banana, so if you don’t like banana, it’s not a good time. I’m happy to have tried these, and I would recommend them to someone looking for a vegan or healthier version of pancakes, but I would not choose to purchase another bag.
