Stacked Pancakes with Berries & Syrup — C6 Envelope

A tall stack of golden pancakes catches maple syrup mid-drip, topped with raspberries, blueberries and a sprig of mint, with a cinnamon stick resting beside a few loose berries on the plate. The watercolor rendering keeps the food looking hand-painted rather than photographic, so the envelope reads as a cozy illustration rather than a menu photo.

Good for a weekend brunch invitation, a recipe mailed to someone who bakes, or a thank-you note that doesn't need to be formal.
