Davenport omelette pan with improvement by Ben Said

Although called an omelette pan, magicians usually used this apparatus to bake a cake. The performer breaks an egg into a glass and beats it up with a little milk. The mixture is then poured onto the silver plate, stirred and poured into a borrowed hat. The hat might be held over a candle flame to cook the cake. The performer then removes a genuine cake from the hat which is returned to its owner undamaged. The cake may be enjoyed by the audience. The pan was found with Davenport instructions, although the pan is not stamped DEMON. The instructions explain the Ben Said improvement which has made the trick even more mystifying by somewhat altering the shape of the pan.
