Hi. Can I use castor sugar instead of brown sugar? Will it change the texture or taste?

[@theSugarCrumble]

Hello! Yes you can use caster sugar. In this case, the brown sugar is used with the egg white as a binder for the Florentine so there should be no big difference. I tend to like to use brown sugar as I find its sweetness to be more mellow compared to white but they both can work.

Hai, must put cardamom?

[@theSugarCrumble]

Hello! It’s not a must of course but I find cardamom gives it a rather wholesome nutty spiced flavour. If you have not tried it, I would recommend it. You would be pleasantly surprised.

Can we replace the sugar with honey? How much honey?

[@theSugarCrumble]

Hello! I have not tried this with honey but I think you can. Brown sugar was added to create a kinda caramel syrup with the egg white which would bind the nuts together. Honey is already sticky so it could work. Maybe just add 1 or 2 tbsp according to taste. I think substituting with honey is a great idea. Let me know how it goes!
