Prepare all ingredients and have them ready before starting to cook the sugar.

Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons of honey into a cup and set it by the stove for later use.

Measure out 5 teaspoons of baking soda and mix in 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar.

In a saucepan, add 1 cup of water at the bottom to ensure even melting of the sugar.

Add 3 1/2 cups of sugar and 1 1/2 cups of golden corn syrup to the saucepan with water.

Place the saucepan on high heat without stirring to prevent crystallization.

Boil the mixture until it reaches 284°F (140°C) using a candy thermometer.

At 284°F, add the prepared honey to the mixture.

Continue cooking until the mixture reaches 300°F (150°C).

Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly sift in the baking soda and cream of tartar mixture over the top.

Stir quickly with a wooden spoon until well blended, then pour into a greased and parchment-lined 9x13 pan.

Allow the mixture to grow and cool for at least 2 hours until hardened.

Once cooled, use the end of a rolling pin to crack the sponge toffee into pieces.
