• 1/2 cup of light corn syrup
• 1/3 cup of water

How to Make Honeycomb Toffee

Step 1:

Start by lining a 9-inch baking tray with parchment paper and grease it well.

Prepare a metal whisk and 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Set them aside for later.

Step 2:

In a very large saucepan over medium/high heat, add the sugar, corn syrup, and water. Mix until well combined. Let it come to a boil.

Step 3:

Insert the candy thermometer and continue to heat without stirring until it reaches 300F.

Step 4:

Remove it from heat. Work quickly for this next step. Add the baking soda and quickly whisk into the sugar syrup. Whisk no more than 5 seconds. It will begin to expand, then immediately pour into the prepared pan. Leave it and do not move it for about 1 to 2 hours.

Step 5:

Once it has cooled and set, gently remove it from the pan.  Using a blunt object, shatter the toffee into small pieces.

Step 6:

This step is optional. Add the chocolate into a heat-proof bowl and melt in the microwave for about 75 to 90 seconds, stirring after every 30 seconds. Dip each toffee in the melted chocolate and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle sea salt on top and refrigerate for about 15 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
