The Happy Egg Company has made a device which creates pancakes from eggs laid minutes before.

The free range egg brand linked up with four design engineers, who spent more 300 hours on the project - 100 of those just for testing.

Inspired by Wallace & Gromit, the 'Pancake-omatic' contraption sees the throne-sitting hen set off the chain reaction, before ending with the "world's freshest pancake".

Using a wide selection of household objects including an old gramophone and electric whisk, the video shows the process from start to finish.
