Homemade Easy Honeycomb
How to make Yummy Honeycomb candy at home
What you will need:
1 tblsp vinegar
Knob of Butter (size of a walnut)
1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda
1 cup White Sugar
1 tblsp honey
Method:
Place the White Sugar, honey, vinegar and butter in a heavy saucepan.
Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Insert a candy thermometer and boil gently until it reaches the hard crack stage (149-154C).
Remove from the heat and add the bi-carbonate soda, stirring until the mixture swells up.
Pour into a buttered tin (approx. 15cm x 23cm), let cool until half set then mark into squares with an oiled knife.
Alternatively, wait until the mixture is cold, turn pan over and knock out with a hammer - it will break into a
number of pieces.
Store in an airtight container, packed between single layers of greaseproof wax paper.
