This treat is something I loved to gobble up when I was a child. Good times. Now it would probably pull my teeth out.

Sponge Candy Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
1 cup corn syrup (dark)
1 TBS vinegar
1 TBS baking soda

Directions

  • Using a heavy saucepan, stir everything but the baking soda over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Now let the syrup continue to heat without stirring until it reaches 300° F.
  • Remove from heat and quickly whisk in the 1 TBS of baking soda–this will cause the syrup to foam and puff up. Next pour the foaming syrup into a buttered 9×9 pan (do not spread or move the syrup with any utensils, allow it spread itself) .
  • Once it’s cooled and hardened, break the candy into pieces and enjoy.
