Responsible for keeping us all entertained in the kitchen during the pandemic, first place goes to cloud bread, with 3.2 billion views. Last year had many of us trying to make our own bread, with searches for ‘how to make bread’ reaching its highest peak over the last five years last March. But cloud bread is unique in the fact that it is a fluffier alternative to normal bread, in some instances using dye to create the ultimate cloud effect.
In second place is every caffeine addict’s dream, the infamous whipped (or dalgona) coffee. Similar to its successor, the drink only uses three ingredients and reportedly is like drinking a ‘coffee cloud.’ With nearly 3 billion views (2,842,215,600) the caffeine delight is sure to be a tasteful alternative to your regular coffee breaks at work.
Pancake cereal claims third place. Pretty much what it says on the tin, the mini sweet treats have endless possibilities with toppings like golden syrup, Nutella, or yoghurt – it explains why the #pancakecereal has over 1 billion views (1,603,147,600) on TikTok.
A recent newcomer to TikTok, feta pasta takes fourth place. A simple hack that involves baking a block of feta cheese with some cherry tomatoes in the oven has had 1,057,300,000 views on TikTok and has been described as ‘the perfect weeknight pasta dish.’
At the other end of the table is frog bread(17,904,752 views) and the newest craze – pesto eggs (44,223,300). Whilst in 19th place, the recent trend of pesto eggs is climbing through the ranks already after only going viral in the last couple of months.
