I like honeycomb or cinder toffee ( I am not sure what the difference is), but I have never made it. Paul decided to try it out to see how easy or hard it could be. Pretty simple and it tastes great.
Ingredients
100g caster sugar
50g golden syrup
20g vegan margarine eg Vitalite
1 tbsp (10g) water
1/4 tsp cider or white vinegar
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
Line a baking tray with oiled parchment – something 20cm square would work well
Add sugar, syrup, margarine and water to a pan
Heat until turns a dark golden brown (think maple syrup) – this should occur at 138 degrees celsius – do this without stirring the mixture, you can shake the pan though
Add vinegar, then bicarb and briefly stir – this will fiercely bubble the mixture
Pour into the lined baking tray and allow to cool – if desired, score before fully cooled to make breaking easier
Ideal as a topping for ice cream if broken into very small pieces, or coat with your favourite chocolate.
