Chunky Golden Honeycomb Recipe

Name: Lyle’s Chunky Golden Honeycomb
Yield: 10+
Ingredients: 5 tbsp Lyle’s Golden Syrup; 200 g Fairtrade Tate & Lyle Golden Caster Cane Sugar; 2 tsp Bicarbonate soda

HOW TO MAKE HONEYCOMB

Follow this 3-step basic honeycomb recipe for the ultimate taste explosion! When it comes to making honeycomb, it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to brew up these luscious chunks.

Step 1

Combine the Lyle's Golden Syrup and the Golden Caster Sugar in a large pan and stir over a low heat until the sugar melts. (Don't let it bubble until the grains have completely dissolved, then simmer on a low heat for 5-10 minutes until you have a gorgeous amber-coloured caramel.)

Pro tip

Honeycomb is great on top of pancakes, alongside yoghurts, or as an addition to fruit salads.

Step 2

Remove the pan from the heat, very quickly add the bicarbonate of soda and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture is foaming. Immediately pour into a greased and lined 20cm (8”) brownie tin- where it should continue to bubble nicely.

Pro tip

Once you have added the bicarbonate of soda, the less you stir the honeycomb, the bigger the bubbles will be.

Step 3

Leave to cool and set for about 1-2 hours until hard and brittle, then break into bite-size chunks.

Pro tip

If you dip your honeycomb into melted chocolate, you can effectively create your own crunchie!
