Ingredients
  

  • 250 g golden syrup
  • 6 Tablespoons castor sugar
  • 3 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a baking tin with grease proof paper and set aside.
  • Place the golden syrup and sugar into a large pot on low heat, stir to combine.
  • Keep the heat low until sugar has melted (Note: It shouldn't boil or even bubble)
  • When the sugar has melted increase temperature to medium-low heat. Let it summer slowly until it reaches an amber colour (do not stir at this stage, just make a swirling motion with the pan)
  • When it reaches that amber colour turn off heat and add in bicarbonate soda.
  • Whisk vigorously, it will start to foam up and be extremely hot at this stage
  • Tip it straight into the prepared tin.
  • Leave it to cool for around 2 hours then break it into chunks and store in an airtight container.
