Recipe for Honeycomb (like Cruchies but without the chocolate!)
7 Answers
I'm sure it's just old age catching up with me... but I've misliad a recipe I tore out of a weekend supplement from the papers a few weeks back - it was for a recipe by Rachel Allen (I think it was her... she's the blonde Irish chef on the telly a lot)... for Honeycomb (like Cruchies but without the chocolate!). I remeber bicarbonate of soda and golden syrup were in the ingredients but the rest is a blank - can anyone enlighten me with the full correct recipe please? Thanks Claire

Hi Claire,
