Adrian,
The best way to clean anything with cooked sugar is to fill the pot with water and put your utensils in it. Bring it to a boil and you should be able to get the sugar off everything. Hope that helps

My mum used to make this during her lunch break from school, during WW2 but she forgot the proportions. I LOVE honeycombe so thanks for this, I am in honey heaven.

I have just tried this recipe, but it didn’t work for me. The sugar was no where near burnt before I put the bi carb in but it turned out like black tar. I also only used 3/4 of a tspn of bi carb and it still tasted soapy. I really want to try again but think this is someones way of telling me I shouldnt eat it! Hmm well maybe 1 more time

I’ve tried lots of Honeycomb recipes, and the one that has worked for me every time is the Gordon Ramsay one – which is online if you google it. I grease my stone bench top with some oil & pour the foaming mass directly onto it. This seems to make it set very quickly & I can break it up within 20 minutes or so.
