About this deal

I show two methods for making this candy – the first creates large honeycomb holes, and the second makes smaller sponge like holes. Nathan Walters died in 1957. He left the entirety of his estate to Jewish charities, and his four sons received nothing. The Walters family unsuccessfully contested the last will in the Probate Court. Wear gloves to whisk the sugar mixture, if available. The mixture releases a lot of steam, and the gloves will provide you protection. You won’t need gloves once you get used to the process though, because you’ll know how to avoid the steam. Golden syrup– Golden syrup adds authentic flavor to crunchie bars or hokey pokey. But you can also use honey or corn syrup.

Palm Toffee was a high quality product available at a reasonable price. It appears to have been mainly produced for the working class market. Does anyone remember Palm Toffee? Did one of your relatives work at the Acton factory? Feel free to leave comments below. This honeycomb toffee is incredible! Sweet, yes, but perfectly balanced with the bittersweet chocolate and salt. You’d be surprised at how much of it you could easily put away!Remember to use a large pot to make the honeycomb toffee. Once you add the baking soda, it’ll expand significantly, so all that space will be needed. J A & P Holland closed the Acton factory in 1961. Production of Palm confectionery was transferred to Holland factories in Southport and Birmingham. Once the honeycomb toffee is hardened, remove it from the pan and place it on a chopping board. Use the tip of a very sharp knife, and gently push it into the honeycomb toffee – it’ll shatter into pieces. Then break any large pieces into smaller ones.

Tip the sugar, cream and butter into a large, heavy-based, deep saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally until all the ingredients have come together and the sugar and butter have melted. Don’t discard any honeycomb toffee pieces that get crushed or are too small. You can add that to your coffee, hot chocolate, or vanilla steamers because they dissolve really well and add incredible flavor. Place a sugar thermometer or digital cooking thermometer in the pan, then turn up the heat and boil everything together vigorously, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 140C. Remove from the heat and leave for a moment to let any bubbles settle, then carefully pour the molten toffee into the prepared tin, swirling the tin until the toffee fully covers the base. Leave for at least 2 hrs to set, or overnight if possible. Crunchie chocolate bars were my favorite growing up. But now they are a little too sweet for my liking. So, as an alternative, I came up with these dark chocolate coated, homemade honeycomb toffee, sprinkled with sea salt. These have the perfect balance of sweet, caramel, crunchy, salty and bittersweet chocolate!I prefer to coat my honeycomb with dark chocolate. Anything between 60 – 70% cocoa content is my favorite option to balance the sweetness of the toffee. But you can choose any chocolate you prefer. Method - Put all into a pan, allow the butter; to melt and the sugar to dissolve well, stirring occasionally, until when a little is dropped into cold water it sets. Pour into- tin. —Celia Rawson Have all the ingredients weighed and measured before you start, especially the baking soda. This way, the baking soda is ready to go as soon as the sugar syrup comes to the right temperature. And don’t forget to sprinkle some salt on top. I like to use Maldon sea salt flake. How to store the candy for later Uncoated honeycomb toffee/sponge toffee Honeycomb is of course sugar based, so it’s always going to be sweet, but balancing that sweetness with salt and chocolate is crucial, and helps take the edge off all that sugar in this candy.
