    you'll never believe the ingredients man....

    » 500g/18oz/2 cups granulated sugar.
    » 60g/2oz/one quarter cup butter.
    » 3½ tablespoons condensed milk.
    » vanilla essence
    » 170ml/6 floz/three quarters cup water.


    basically its melted sugar congealed using the condensed milk...

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    fkin hell!!! that would melt yer teeth...


    Yellowman is the North Ulster equivalent - sold up in Ballycastle on the north antrim coast at the Oul Lammas Fair at the end of August.



    1 lb/ 1/2 kg/ 1 1/2 cups golden or corn syrup
    8oz/ 250g/ 1 cup brown sugar
    1 tbsp butter (heaped)
    2 tbsp vinegar
    1 tbsp baking soda

    In a large saucepan slowly melt together all the ingredients except the baking soda. Do not stir. Boil until a drop hardens in cold water (240°F, 190°C on a sugar thermometer). Stir in the baking soda. The toffee will immediately foam up as the vinegar releases the gas from the baking soda. Pour out onto a greased slab and while just cool enough to handle fold the edges towards the centre and pull repeatedly until the whole is a pale yellow colour. Allow to cool and harden in a greased tin and break into chunks with a toffee hammer - or anything else that comes to hand.


    You also need a piece of string and one trusty doorknob for self-extraction of teeth afterwards :D

    here, maybe part of the 10c experience is the secret entrance is in the roof - so we get to abseil in from the top :D
