Ingredients
Homemade Honeycomb
- 1 cup caster sugar super fine sugar
- 1/2 cup golden syrup find this at Whole Foods or online
- 3 Tbsp baking soda
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and set closely to the range where you’ll be melting the sugar and syrup.
- Place the sugar and the syrup in a medium sauce pan and stir until the mixture melts. It will become thick first, but as it heats it will melt into a gooey syrup. It takes about 5 minutes.
- Once the mixture is bubbling and richer in color, like a dark golden brown add in the baking powder and whisk quickly. Immediately pour the mixture on to the parchment paper while it’s still fluffy.
- Let it sit for about 15 minutes then bash it to pieces! The inside will resemble a honeycomb.
- Make the vanilla ice cream and add the homemade honeycomb to the base about 5 minutes before the ice cream is done in the ice cream maker.
- Leave some thicker ones for an extra crunchy ice cream texture! AND a few to sprinkle over the top.

To make it easier, hand mix the honeycomb into a store-bought ice cream. Leave some to sprinkle over the top.
