Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 3/4 tsp baking soda
- tempered chocolate, for coating
- dried edible flowers, for garnish
- flaky salt, for garnish
Instructions
- Butter an 8-inch round cake pan, line it with parchment paper and set aside.
- Combine sugar, corn syrup, honey, and water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, occasionally stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Brush down sides with a wet pastry brush, if needed.
- Continue to cook without stirring until the mixture reaches 310°F (154°C), 10- 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Sprinkle baking soda over top and use a rubber spatula to stir it in quickly, thoroughly but as little as possible (over-stirring will deflate the bubbles). Pour candy into pan; don’t level or touch the surface. Candy will continue to expand and then will fall in the center. Let sit at room temperature to cool completely.
- Pull it out of the pan and break into bite-sized pieces. Dip in tempered chocolate right after breaking and sprinkle with dried edible flowers and flaky salt. Store in an airtight container or plastic zip-top bag.
