HONEYCOMB TOFFEE
This very fun and simple-to-make candy goes by many names; cinder toffee, sponge candy, and my personal favorite, 'hokey pokey,' but no matter what you call it, this eye-catching confection is a proven crowd pleaser. Thousands of bubbles, trapped in the cooling sugar syrup, give this the most interesting melt-in-your-mouth texture. As long as you're very careful and heat the syrup up to the correct temp, there's not a lot that can go wrong.

Steps:
- Line a baking dish with parchment paper, measure out baking soda in a small bowl, and have a heat-proof spatula ready before starting.
- Whisk sugar, corn syrup, honey, and water together in a saucepan with a candy thermometer attached. Heat over medium heat until mixture is thinner but still cloudy. Let bubble until mixture is clear and thermometer registers 300 degrees F (149 degrees C).
- Remove from heat. Whisk in baking soda until just incorporated. Switch to a spatula and very carefully pour into the lined dish. Do not spread it out with your spatula or compress mixture at all, or the bubbles will deflate. Let cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
- Remove candy from the pan by lifting out the parchment paper. Rap against the counter and use your fingers to break it into individual pieces.

Steps:
- Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Heat, without stirring, to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda. Pour into prepared pan; do not spread. Mixture will not fill pan. Allow to cool completely. In the microwave or over a double boiler, melt coating chocolate, stirring frequently until smooth. Break cooled candy into bite sized pieces and dip into melted candy coating. Let set on waxed paper. Store tightly covered.

Steps:
- Combine the sugar, syrup, and vanilla in a medium-size saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
- Continue to cook to 300 degrees F, on a candy thermometer or hard crack stage, about 10 minutes. Cook's Note: You can use a candy thermometer or a simple trick: take a spoon and drop a tiny drizzle of the mixture into a bowl of water. If it crystallizes, you've reached the hard crack stage.
- Remove from the heat, using a wooden spoon, stir in the baking soda quickly. It will become frothy. Pour into an 8 by 8-inch/20 by 20-cm pan, lined with parchment paper and buttered.
- Let cool for about 30 minutes and break into pieces.

ESPRESSO SPONGE TOFFEE
This is a recipe for espresso-flavored sponge toffee. I put it on my blog (http://bostoncheapeats.blogspot.com/) after trying it out. The bitterness of the espresso is good for countering the sweetness of the sponge toffee. If you have dark chocolate chips or melting chocolate, let the toffee harden and cool, break into pieces, and dip into melted dark chocolate for a more sophisticated treat or gift. Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a saucepan (at least 2 quarts big) on low, heat up the first 4 ingredients (everything except the baking soda). Use a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients together.
- Make sure you have a candy thermometer, either clipped to the side of the pan or leaning inside the pan, to monitor the temperature of the mixture while it is heating up. The temperature you want to eventually get to, is 300°F.
- Line a baking pan (or brownie pan) with parchment paper or silicon mat (with parchment paper to cover the sides). Or, grease the baking pan if you don't have parchment paper or a silicon mat.
- When the mixture is 300 F, turn the heat off.
- Make sure there are no lumps in the baking soda and add it to the sugar mixture.
- Mix quickly with the wooden spoon while the mixture bubbles up. It will expand to at least 2 times its original volume.
- Using the wooden spoon or a spatula, pour and scrape the toffee into the baking pan.
- Let it cool for at least 30 minutes before breaking it into pieces.

MAPLE SPONGE TOFFEE
I had an amazing sponge toffee on a trip to a maple syrup refinery, so I was excited when I saw this recipe on the Globe and Mail newspaper. I have had it in other places, called "seafoam", but the maple syrup makes a nice difference. I have yet to try this particular, but I do not want to lose this recipe.

Steps:
- Lightly grease 8 mini metal pudding basins that each hold around 200ml. Place a small disc of baking parchment in the base of each one.
- To make the sauce, put the sugars and butter in a small saucepan and cook over a low heat until the butter melts and the sauce is glossy, stirring regularly. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Cook for 1 min, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and divide between the pudding basins. Leave to cool for 30 mins.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Beat the butter, sugar, eggs and flour together in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or electric whisk until pale and thick. Spoon the mixture into the pudding basins and place them in a small roasting tin.
- Add cold water to the roasting tin until it rises just 1cm up the sides of the basins. Place the tin in the oven and bake for about 25 mins or until well risen and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
- Take the tin out of the oven and, one at a time and holding firmly with a dry tea towel, loosen the sides of each pudding with a round-bladed knife. Turn out onto 8 warmed dessert plates, or arrange on a platter. Serve hot with cream or ice cream, if you like.
