Sponge Toffee/Honeycomb/Seafoam candy (homemade Crunchie bars)- with yoyomax12

Sponge toffee is very crunchy but melts in your mouth. If you love Cadbury Crunchie bars, dip your toffee pieces in chocolate.

I'm a Canadian girl right from Toronto and I grew up calling it Sponge Toffee, the bulk barn here in Canada sells it and they sell it as sponge toffee. The crunchie bar is my FAV!!!!!!! I'm going to try this as soon as I get a candy thermometer. Thanks for the video I LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos!

[@karaholley9578]

Just used your recipe, and never made anything like this before and it turned out fantastic!!!! Thanks so much for this video!!!

Finally. A simple sponge candy recipe. And without gelatin. Thank you.

[@almostenuf2]

I have been looking all over for a sponge toffee tutorial! Thank you! Subscribed!!

[@katerinat.1955]

Oh my! I remember, about 10 years ago, my father went away on a business trip. When he got back he brought me and my brothers presents and candy bars. This was one of them. I haven't had one of those since then. Cadbury is extremely hard to find where I live. I didn't even remember the name of those. You just brought me vivid memories of my childhood. Thank you!

[@nerdfighter4]

This is definitely going on my list of goodies to make for the holidays!

[@khadijeharman]

Thank you for the fantastic recipe!!! I have tried so many honeycomb recipes and they are always chewy rather than crunchy, this came out perfect!!! :D

[@thizizliz]

Oooh, that's great - we make toffee at the holidays so may add this one to our list. Thanks Tammy!

[@sockmonkey828]

Yum, I love seafoam (what I know this heaven to be called). I had some at the beach earlier this week and was determined to try making it at home. The kind I had was covered in dark chocolate with sea salt sprinkled on top. Thanks for the recipe!

[@sailorgirl2017]

Years ago, my friends mom gave me a crunchie bar and it was the most delicious thing I'd ever had but I never was able to think of the name all these years later. Thank you sooooo much for sharing this recipe! I just made a batch and am waiting for it to cool down so I can dip them in chocolate and transport back to my childhood. I'll leave another comment when I'm all done to let you know how I did! thanks again! I love your channel and subbed!

[@Chattermute]

Anything homemade always looks better and tastes better. :)

[@JessicaBowd]

I love the name Sponge Toffee instead of Honeycomb! A much better description of it too!

[@OkiNinjaKitty]

Thank you so much for this! I love sponge toffee but haven't had it in years and years! Going to have to try and make this!

[@missiworld]

My grandma used to make this, and it's been my favourite for years. Thank you for the recipe! I'm hoping I can make this for my fiance so he can get a peek into my childhood.

[@mirandas7033]

[@KTrafford]

Oh I adore Cadbury's Crunchies!! I love honeycombe too!! Soo yum!

[@annanguyen7888]

IKR

[@velvetheart7683]

So happy to find this. I was born in Toronto Canada, lived there until I was 7 then we moved to the States...I always remembered that sponge candy and how much I loved it and then years and years later I found it covered in chocolate at a candy store...and then eventually, at World Market packaged by Cadbury. It's not available just anywhere. My memory of it as a child was with no chocolate and we called it sponge candy, not honeycomb. I find all this debate about the name amusing...it's just so good! As one person below put it with a Shakespearean twist,, candy by any other name is still as sweet...Thank you so much for posting this recipe!

[@aync1421]

I remember this as being called "Seafoam" and it is one of my favorite candies. Thank you for the recipe ( and a new subscriber) !

[@marilynwebster2368]

This is some of what I miss about Canada...Clark's candy. Thank you, thank you , THANK YOU 💖💖💖

[@chickapey]

how cool! i never knew this could be made at home!

[@Kekanunu]

This is hokey pokey! Yum yum!

[@lochness3224]

How did I not find this vid sooner....... I also had no idea heavenly cinder toffee could be made soooooo easily....... Thank you yoyomax12.......x

[@na4evr]

My mom's favorite bar was Crunchie! I'll have to make it for her sometime. It's a lot easier than I thought it would be. :) Thank you.

[@themagnificentsans8317]

Everyone in my area calls that type of candy "sea foam", and it can only be found in the nice candy/chocolate shops where everything is crazy expensive; I'm so glad to find out how easy it is to make! ^-^

[@MsSpark111]

Wow! Ur videos are always fun to watch!

[@Blueenk]

I really liked violet crumble. I'll be doing this when I have the ingredients. Thanks for this. :D

[@dashofcharm9095]

Wow - I am South African, a Cook, and love crunchies. You just gained another subscriber. Love the video ❤

[@michellefarrell4493]

I used to find it some apple stands in New England but I haven't been able to find it. I'm glad that I found a recipe that I can finally make it at home.

[@han5234]

I'm so excited to make this!

[@BeckieTenshiChan]

Anyone else call it Cinder Toffee or is that just a Northern England thing? Either way, I wanna make this! Homemade Crunchies WOO!

[@Amanda-of6io]

Yes! I literally just commented this haha. In yorkshire we call it cinder toffee xD

[@Hellzap0ppin]

that looks delicious! i will definitely be making this! thank you, Tammy! =D

[@ileanafigueroa8685]

Thanks so much for sharing your recipe, very special candy. Blessings!

[@Johnbro8]

If you add roasted peanuts and stir in at the end, it would add another edge to a fine recipe. Friend of mine as a child, visited the Fry’s factory in the UK ( they were made by Fry’s before, Cadbury had them) with the school in the 1950’s, before Health and Safety issues. He loved Crunches, while they all walked round the factory and was freely given samples of the product from the production line, by the end of the tour there was 24 children feeling very delicate. He told me that was the last time he craved a Crunchy

[@Magnesium02]

Here is Australia it is called Honeycomb. I've also heard it called Hokey Pokey. But a candy by any other names tastes as sweet.

[@ShamanKeema]

I always thought hokey pokey was chunks of butterscotch? It never ceases to amaze me how differently named the same things are around the world - but still in the same language! :)

[@jennystill8398]

Same in the UK. It's honeycomb or cinder toffee :)

[@Ggstvideos]

They have crunchies in Australia. They are at IGA :)

[@nancyharrington493]

KeemaMUA right! I think it's so funny to hear people call cookies biscuts. In America biscuts are a buttery flakey bread. It's so funny and interesting

[@0roseable]

Gina :) And everywhere else, they're not exclusive to IGA...

[@poissonCHA1]

whouuuuuu this was my favorite in highschool ! must be almost 10 years since i ve bought one..... I MUST MAKE THIS RECIPE ! :D

[@Tony-sj3xq]

Your's look the best ( more texture and just fresher ) , and most appetizing to be honest . Great and thanks for the recipe

[@haylestorm07]

Awesome work, I'm definitely going to try this :)

[@wildheart5]

You did a beautiful job on this sponge. This is a great idea for gifts! Thanks Tammy!

[@davidogan]

You have such a wonderful channel. This sponge candy looks so delicious! I will try and make it soon. Thank you very much for your video.

[@gerrythegamer631]

Yours looks super delicious!

[@caliv0608]

That looks so awesome boiling up! Might have to make this with my daughter, looks like science and ends with candy. :)

[@bettyk8105]

AThis is one of my favourite treats☺️. I love all the different names for it!

[@rmapb]

Hi just made it, Turned out to be awesome

[@tweetybrd78]

I make this every year for Christmas! TFS..

[@ashnkksmom2264]

This was one of my favorites as a kid.

[@HeyItsLaurenE]

I made this tonight and it tastes amazing! The only thing is that mine came out slightly hard. Thank you for this recipe!

[@emmacat04]

YES. Crunchies are the best!!!

[@Hey9846]

your bubbles look so perfect

[@Anabella1974]

I loved this candy when I was a kid. We used to buy it as a chocolate bar and sometimes fresh without the chocolate. I thought it was real honeycomb when I was a kid, and that it came from the hive ;-)

[@TheBee143]

Mine is cooling now! Excited to try it.:)

I've never heard of this (I am American) but it looks delicious! And pretty easy! :)

[@007lovediamonds6]

My favourite crunchie thanks for sharing this lovely recipe how to make honeycomb was looking for this for a long time and just popped up

[@D3bN3lson]

Thank you for the video and recipe! I am going to try this, but going to drizzle chocolate on top before cutting.

[@srt4535]

Peanut Brittle! Mix in roasted peanut. Granny made this all the time. We fought to see who could get to it first. Yum!

[@RandiRQ]

Thank you for this wonderful video. You have given me the courage to try to make it myself! It’s one of my favorite kinds of candy, too! 😊

[@melissaoncoast]

I tried another recipe and a HUGE FAIL. This one was PERFECT! THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Great Valentines Day gift for my man! OXOXOXOXOXXOOXOXXO

[@kat92789]

Crunchies have never been my fave but I used to get them as a kid when I wanted something that would last me longer than a Coffee Crisp or Kit Kat... Sponge toffee is so nice to take a little bite of and just let it melt on your tongue! I may have to try this :)

[@Holycowbow]

This really trips off. My trypophobia but I want to try this

[@JulieDucastelpanic]

Omg! Yes! It's been fvr since I saw you! Thanks for sharing

[@CassandraLMillner]

Your candy looks waay better!

[@Meganprice25387]

We call it honeycomb lol soooo yummy

[@Daisypawz]

I used to go to a candy store in Solvang, CA and got this exact candy covered in dark chocolate. It never made it home :P I'm never able to find it now that I moved to VA and I've missed it a lot. I can't thank you enough for this recipe!! I never knew what it was called and now I know it's many names. But best of all... I can make it myself!! You have made me very happy ... thank you!!!!

[@avalonspawn]

Hey mom... I definitely remember out times going out there to eat the chocolate covered honey comb in Solvang. They do make this in the shop in King George too, Mary's something (down that road behind the bank). It's not quite the same, but it looks like this recipe might end up a lot more like what we remember. We should make it together sometime. :D

[@bettatech2000]

OMG that looks so good

[@ClaireWill71uk]

Cinder toffee, great as minty flavour...used to get this from shop on way to school in 70/80's

[@sarahs9238]

I made this for my family and it was so delicious! They are begging me to make it again

[@boonikki29]

Here in the Midwest it's referred to by both names. Can't wait to try it!

[@misskiss24]

Hi Yoyomax cool video in the uk we call the sponge toffee cinder toffee :) it's like a seaside treat other than that we do also have crunchys and we do call it honeycomb too :) x

[@MiMiCatt]

We call that Angel Food in Wisconsin! I love this stuff! :D

[@CameronJaysChannel]

OH my gosh A HA moment! I've been craving one of these that I got from world market ages ago and couldn't remember what it was! :) Now I can make it at home! Thanks

[@bcgrote]

Here in the U.S. we call it seafoam or honeycomb. No matter what you call it, though, it's DELICIOUS!!! Thanks for this recipe, I will try it!

[@yoyomax12]

Apparently sponge toffee might be a Canadian thing.

[@tewesathemonkey]

yoyomax12 - the diet free zone No, I just think the name SPONGE TOFFEE is a Canadian name for the SAME delicious stuff we eat in Europe & America! OTHER "names" for it? Honeycomb, Sweet Seafoam, Hokey Pockey (sp?), Spun Sugar Comb...I'm sure in Africa, India or China it may be called somethig else. But, still is the SAME thing! LOL

[@tewesathemonkey]

BRAVO! Yes, it is basically prepared the same way in every country. The only thing that may change is the NAME! :0) I AGREE with you...it is still DELICIOUS! I'm working on a LOW SUGAR version for Diabetics. I utilize "sugar free" honey when I prepare it, along with Splenda's Brown Sugar Blend. The secret is getting the correct quantity of sugar & honey incorporated to react with the baking soda. Sugar Free items work a bit different than table sugar.

[@220274mark]

I need to share this on my wife's face ache wall. looks scrumdiddyumpsious.

[@veetee1925]

Omg I love you so much for this!!!

[@MrTincansailor]

[@actuallowroller]

We call it honeycomb here in the US. Delicious...

[@mukwah1111]

How fun Tammy ! I remember Crunchie bars used to make my tongue raw. Guess it was the baking soda. Delicious though. You inspire so many.

[@imperceptibleme]

It looks yummy! Hugs!

[@journeytowardshaq2887]

Wow perfect recipe

[@mmmh6406]

WOW, just made this and it was a complete success, it has made 2 large dishes. I have had a few attempts at making this honeycomb but it never rose like this, I substitute vanilla extract for almond, and I must say, even though I made it myself, ITS FANTASTIC. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS WITH US, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

[@yoyomax12]

I love to hear success stories from people that try these recipes! Thanks for letting me know :)
