OMG! I'm 65 and one of my strongest childhood memories was going down to the main Sears store in downtown Seattle (Now the headquarters for Starbucks Coffee). It was a long journey for a kid at 8 miles. Mom would buy me one chocolate-covered block of Seafoam at the fancy candy counter by the elevator. It was SO good! I will be trying this recipe soon. I don't need it but I must have it. Thank you. You've given me the "Direction to my favorite Confection!"

[@coloradokid8321]

When working with extremely hot sticky stuff like this, it’s always a good idea to keep an ice bath close by (to dunk your hand in should you get any on you)! The faster you can cool down the material, the less severe burn you will get.

Even before Crunchie was a thing I remember eating squares of this stuff as a kid. They sold it as a candy. No chocolate though, just a square block of it. I still remember how they tasted of baking soda. No idea who made that candy though... And yes, gotta love the Crunchy bars! Cheers, - Eddy

[@SuperSojourn]

Robin Montoya Rory you deserved a thumbs down for that Cheesy pun.

[@commentcopbadge6665]

If you want more and bigger bubble without using double the baking soda add some cream of tartar. Since it's an acid it will react with the BS just like the volcanoes we all made for science fairs when we were kids. Use 1/3 CoT to the amount of BS. Stir them together before pouring it into the sugar mixture. Not only do you get more bubbles but you will get a "softer" set which leads to a better crunch, chew and mouth feel. It's a secret we used at the bakery.

[@Seventeen_Syllables]

This is awesome. Everyone should know how to make at least one candy for survival situations and torrone is sort of tricky for if lives are at stake. The one drawback is that there is no recognized phobia of things sticking to your teeth.

[@Brandon-yr3nj]

adding a small amount of cream of tartar might neutralize more of the baking soda and get rid of the aftertaste. also possibly using a higher proportion of corn syrup, as it is very acidic.

[@fishworshipper]

Couldn't you just use a little less of the baking soda, though? Perhaps 1.5 times the original amount instead of 2 times?

[@AltoidJTP]

Actually that's not a bad idea. The increased acidity will react more of the baking soda. Perhaps a 3:1 blend of baking soda to baking powder (which is just baking soda + cream of tartar). Right. Off to the kitchen I go.

[@S-K.]

Might also help add volume with the lower amount of baking soda!

[@goof1232]

[@jillhumphrys8073]

Ooooh! I want that recipe!

[@Genthar]

Since Honey is basically concentrated sugar water, I'd guess you could use the same proportions of just honey and baking soda. I personally would probably add the water though. Worst case scenario is that you'll just lengthen the cooking time as the water cooks off, but, it can help you bring the temp up a little slower so you don't burn the sugar. Might have to play with the ratio of honey to baking soda since the acid levels will probably be different, but, it should work.
