Cook: 15 mins

Serves: 10 - 20

This fun Pesach treat will be adored by sweet-toothed children and adults alike. It’s best made in a large, rectangular disposable aluminum tray. I’ve kept mine plain but you may want to jazz it up with coloured sprinkles if serving to small people.

Method

• In a large saucepan, heat the golden syrup and sugar together over a medium heat. Bring to a boil then allow to simmer over the medium heat for 10 minutes. It needs to turn golden brown but watch it doesn’t burn or it will taste bitter.

• Remove the saucepan from the heat, add the bicarbonate of soda. You want to stir it in quickly because the mixture will foam up instantly.
