I have all of those ingredients in the house! Not sure I could wait for 3 hours for it to cook! I would want to eat it straight away! Love honeycomb!
I like how they've stated it serves 1 to 12.
Acknowledging that some of us are pigs who could polish that off on its own.
Ooh thank you. I would be happy eating the honeycomb without the chocolate. I might try to make some next week. Is bicarbonate of soda just baking powder?
Here You go Pjran it was easier to do it this way -
What is bicarbonate of soda?
Sodium bicarbonate is the most necessary out of the baking substance family.
The vital white powder is also known as bicarbonate of soda and is a mixture of sodium and hydrogen carbonate.
Its main use is for baking and it is alkaline with a bitter taste.
According to BBC Good Food, when it is mixed with acid (such as milk) it creates carbon dioxide - which causes the mixture to expand before it’s replaced with air.
It is most commonly used for baking cakes or soda bread.
What is baking powder used for?
Baking powder is made up of numerous elements – one of these is sodium bicarbonate, above.
Into the baking powder mix is an acid, cream of tartar and filler like cornflour to absorb any moisture.
Because baking powder already has an acid with it, it’s pretty much a pre-packaged version of sodium bicarbonate – so generally you need only add water to it for the same reaction.
It is used for similar foods as sodium bicarbonate.
When do you use baking soda?
This is an easy one – baking soda is just another name for sodium bicarbonate.
The name makes it very obvious what it's used for, so all bakers should have it in their cupboard.
So hands up who's inspired to get creative in the kitchen after learning the differences?
