Making your own cinder toffee requires a little care and attention but it's worth it. Break into shards and scatter over ice cream and other desserts

Time 30m

Yield Make a good trayful

Number Of Ingredients 4

a little sunflower oil
200g golden caster sugar
100g clear honey
1 tbsp bicarbonate of soda

Steps:

  • Line a big tray with baking parchment and lightly grease with oil. Place the sugar and honey in a large saucepan with 4 tbsp water. Put over a very low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Once the sugar has dissolved, add a sugar thermometer and bring to the boil over a high heat. Bubble until it reaches 149C on the sugar thermometer.
  • Remove from the heat and whisk in the bicarbonate of soda quickly, it will froth up madly - don't worry! Immediately pour into the tray, and leave to cool and set completely.
  • Break into shards to nibble, or crumble over ice cream or our Salted honey fudge & chocolate tart (see 'Goes well with' box, right). Will keep in an airtight container between layers of baking parchment for 1-2 weeks.
