Hokey Pokey Candies
Votes: 9
I've included it in your menu because it's a great gift for a party. Better than flowers, which need to be put in a vase, and better than chocolate, which people smile politely at but then put away. And no one can resist a hokey pokey. The ingredients I listed aren't very numerous, just enough to fill a small mold 12 cm in diameter and 6 cm deep. But any more and you'll be forced to visit the dentist.
Time: 35 min.
At first I was going to say it wasn't as fun as it sounded, but then I changed my mind. Hokey pokey is a Cornish term for honeycomb. This spongy dessert is delicious eaten by breaking off golden pieces or crumbling them into vanilla ice cream.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Pour sugar into a saucepan, add syrup, and stir. Once the saucepan is on the heat, do not stir.
Place the pan on the stove and melt the mixture first, then wait until it thickens and then the boiling mixture takes on the color of maple syrup. This will take about 3 minutes. - Remove the pan from the heat, add the baking soda, and watch the syrup transform into a sizzling cloud of light, airy gold. Immediately transfer the mixture to a piece of parchment or greased foil.
Let the mixture sit until it hardens, then break it into small, sparkling pieces. Yield: 2 tbsp.
