Cooking up a storm

​yesterday I braved the crowds to buy all the supplies I needed for my big cooking marathon 

I started as soon as I got home

The top is honeycomb crack 

First time making it  hubby tasted it and said it was goooood 

The next is a marshmallow treat  

I’ve never made it before iv got it in the fridge to set  id left it on the counter overnight   

Ill cut it up tomorrow and let you know if its a win or a bomb 


I used those little fabric clips to hold the baking paper while I tipped the honeycomb in  

Worked a treat, and was a big help as that honeycomb starts to set quickly 


Today I cracked it into pieces  I’ve bagged some as gifts and the rest is in the container  even the crumbs of honeycomb that where  left is useful  I’ve got it all in that jar  I think it would go great on ice cream 

Maybe I’ll soften some vanilla ice cream  and mix it in before putting it back in the freezer  

Then when served drizzle some of the caramel sauce I made today over it 


I didn’t get photos of the sauce. I’ve put them in little glass bottles and added to the gift bags with the bagged up  honeycomb 


Today as well as the sauce I made regular Christmas crack. Two trays plus some caramel corn 


Once it’s all cooled and set I’ll put them in containers ready for the family Christmas 

I make extra so that the kids can take some home

As we get closer to Boxing Day, that’s when we have our family Christmas, I’ll make more dishes to share  

I’m finally sitting with a hot cup of coffee  I’m pooped!

  1. Oh my G! What wonderful goodies. Honeycomb with icecream. Sounds like good kiwi hokey pokey to me.
    I make caramel sauce for Xmas day. It goes over everything! Even ice cream in the middle of winter.
    I'll bet you are pooped!
    I've got Greek husband making even more melomakarouna.
    I'd prefer brownies. Thank goodness the kids bring them on Xmas day
