Firefighters are warning snack lovers not to warm their Eccles cakes in the microwave after a string of fires caused by the sugar bursting into flames.

Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service said at least three blazes have been caused in the last three weeks after people put the pastries into their microwaves to warm them up.

Statistics show the service has been called to 16 fires started by food being overcooked in a microwave over the past two years.

Merseyside Fire Service has revealed that they have been fighting a series of kitchen blazes fires started by heating Eccles cakes

A Chorley Fire Station spokesman said: 'Whether a grill, a hob, a conventional oven or a microwave are used to heat food, it's essential not to leave it unattended.

'Manufacturers' instructions for cooking or warming-up food should be followed and although for many foods the option of conventional or microwave oven cooking heating is often offered, where a microwave is not specified as an option it's best not to use one.'

The instructions on shop-bought Eccles cakes advise that if they are to be eaten hot, a conventional oven should always be used to warm them through beforehand.

Life is getting TOO dangerous .....
