I've got a Nigella Lawson recipe for it - The amount specified doesn't make much though - enough make 125g. Anyway, here's the recipe - all in Nigella's words, not mine!
You need
100g Caster Sugar
4 x 15ml(Tablespoons) Golden Syrup
1 and a half teaspoons Bicarbonate of Soda.
Put the sugar and syrup into a saucepan and stir together to mix. You mustn't stir once the pan is on the heat though.
Place the pan on the heat and let the mixture first melt, then turn to goo and then to a bubbling mass the colour of maple syrup - this will take 3 minutes or so.
Take it off the heat, whisk in the bicarbonate of soda and watch the syrup turn into a whooshing cloud of aerated pale gold. Turn this immediately onto a piece of reusable baking parchment or greased foil.
Leave until set and then bash at it, so that it splinters into many glistening pieces.
