directions
- Put all the ingredients into a heavy based pan, and heat gently until the sugar dissolves.
- Bring to the boil and boil rapidly until the syrup reaches the soft crack stage, or 145oC (290oF), measured on a sugar thermometer.
- Pour onto a greased marble slab and allow to cool until lukewarm, pulling the edges towards the centre, so they don't become too hard.
- With greased hands, pull and stretch the taffy, until it becomes light in colour, and more elastic.
- Form a rope, and cut into pieces with shap kitchen scissors or a heavy knife. Wrap in clingfilm or waxed paper.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I love to cook (mainly bake, and make confectionary)....My main hobbies are avoiding my uni lectures ;) (i'm studying parasitology ..... yes i'm weird for studying it), and photography. I'm a flower, butterfly, animal, and an all round macro photographer. I draw (badly), and write (also badly). I love to collect recipes, and try them out. Since i have so much free time in uni, i tend to spend most of my time baking cakes and making sweets, trying to find recipes that work.
I'm famous for my swiss rolls and lemon meringue pie. And i've just aquired a marble chopping board, so my fav thing to do is to make humbugs, and sweets that need the toffee stretching. If you have any confectionary recipes, please pass them to me, i'd love to see what i can make :)
