golden syrup

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: corn syrup

Honey provides a natural sweetness, while corn syrup is often less expensive.

baking soda

🥗Healthier: baking powder

Baking powder can be used but may alter the texture slightly.

1

Find a thick-bottomed pan and melt caster sugar and corn syrup over low heat.

2

Dip a brush in water and brush the sides of the pan to prevent sugar crystals from forming.

3

Continue this process until the sugar bubbles reduce in size.

4

Cook the sugar to the crack stage at about 152°C.

5

When the sugar syrup is dropped into chilled water, it should make a cracking sound.

6

Carefully mix in tartary and baking soda into the sugar syrup.

7

Immediately pour the mixture into an aluminum foil-lined baking tray and let it rest for an hour.
