The pancakes day is a traditional festival that takes place 40 days before Easter, so the date is mobile and is celebrated between 3 February and 9 March. In Brazil, the pancake day is called Tuesday of Carnaval.
It is the day when Christians say goodbye to fat to begin the fasting period of Lent. This was the last day that people ate foods like milk, butter and eggs. So the pancake was the perfect dish.
In the united kingdom, this date is marked by several parties and restaurants repelled by special pancake recipes

The symbol of the egg is quite old, dating back to Christianity, which represents fertility and the rebirth of life. It used to be painted a hollowed-out hen egg in very cheerful colors, as Easter is a festive date that celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the egg being a symbol of birth. On Easter Sunday, people give chocolate eggs as presents. This tradition started in Europe in the early 19th century and came to Britain in the 1870's.
The rabbit is an animal that symbolizes fertility thanks to its intense reproductive practice and with that it generates many eggs. Therefore, it is the animal that distributes eggs in Easter.
