Product Description
The Sammic CE-135 is a single-plate electric crepe and pancake machine designed for counter use in commercial catering environments. It uses a cast iron cooking plate with a treated non-stick surface and spiral heating elements beneath to deliver consistent, even heat across the cooking area. The result is reliable, repeatable results with minimal operator skill required once the temperature is set.
In service, the machine performs well for consistent, volume output at a counter or live-cooking station. The cast iron plate retains heat effectively, which helps maintain cooking temperatures during a run of orders rather than losing performance between batches. It is well suited to crepes, pancakes, blinis, chapattis, and other thin flatbreads — any application where a flat, evenly heated surface is needed.
From an operational standpoint, the CE-135 offers several practical advantages:
- Cast iron plate provides stable, even heat distribution with good retention
- Non-stick surface treatment reduces the need for excess cooking fat and simplifies cleaning
- Counter-mounted and compact, making it straightforward to position within a service layout
- Simple temperature control requires minimal training for front-of-house or live-cooking use
- Versatile enough for crepes, pancakes, blinis, and similar flatbreads
Installation is straightforward — the unit is countertop-mounted and requires a suitable electrical supply. Ensure the counter surface is stable and level, and that adequate ventilation exists above the cooking area, particularly if the machine is operating for extended periods or in an enclosed space. It is not a high-output production machine and is best suited to moderate service volumes rather than continuous high-throughput environments.
The CE-135 is a practical choice for cafés, crêperies, hotel breakfast stations, events caterers, and any operation looking to add live pancake or crepe cooking to their service offering without significant investment or infrastructure. For sites needing higher throughput or twin-plate capacity, larger alternatives within the Sammic range may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this model suits your service volumes or counter setup, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The CE-135 performs well for moderate, consistent output — for example, a steady run of orders at a café counter or hotel breakfast station. It is not designed for continuous high-throughput production; operators with very high volumes or back-to-back demand may want to consider a twin-plate or larger-capacity model.
- The unit requires a standard commercial electrical supply; the exact voltage and power rating are listed in the technical specifications for this product. As with any countertop cooking appliance, ensure the socket and circuit are rated appropriately before installation — if you are unsure, a qualified electrician should confirm suitability.
- The treated non-stick cast iron surface is straightforward to clean between uses — typically a wipe-down with a damp cloth or scraper once the plate has cooled slightly. Cast iron plates benefit from occasional light re-seasoning to maintain the non-stick properties and extend the working life of the surface.
