Makes: 20cm square
INGREDIENTS
Butter, for the tin
200g Caster sugar
5 tbsp Cape Coastal Raw Honey
2 tsp Bicarbonate of soda
METHOD
1. Butter a 20cm square tin. Stir the caster sugar and Cape Coastal Raw Honey together in a deep saucepan over gentle heat until the sugar has melted. Try not to let the mixture bubble until the sugar grains have disappeared.
2. Once completely melted, turn up the heat a little and simmer until you have an amber coloured caramel (this won’t take long), then as quickly as you can, turn off the heat, tip in the bicarbonate of soda and beat in with a wooden spoon until it has all disappeared and the mixture is foaming. Scrape into the tin immediately – be careful, the mixture will be very hot.
3. The mixture will continue bubbling in the tin, simply leave it and in about 1 hr to 1 hr 30 mins the honeycomb will be hard and ready to crumble or snap into chunks.
4. Serve with ice cream.
