- Dark, chewy with an intense treacle/burnt flavour. You may not instantly like it - that's normal - but you'll soon be craving another one!

These look really good! I live in the states, so we don't celebrate this holiday, but hey! I'm going to make them, in honor of your celebration ! Loved the history lesson and Syd cam🐶. Kathryn
***** Hi Kathryn, glad you liked my 'school boy' history lesson !!! Sx
I love the history you told of the bonfire, so nice!
SushiLover1990 Mmmmm that was what I could remember from my school boy history !! Sx
I usually have a measuring jug handy with cold water in, and when I think it about ready, I put a few drops in the water. If it set hard, then its at setting point. Good video.
That's what we did at school 😊
i did this by accident once and i found out i actually preferred it to the normal stuff
I just love how much you put in your videos too bring them alive! Great to see TalkBeckyTalk as well xx
Jennifer time Minion does a great job in the editing bring our videos to life ! Sx
@@totallysacha hi just viewed your video, i followed what you did the result was very nice but mine is soft and chewy i like hard toffee what should i do to get hard toffee hope you can help regards ian
Great video Sacha and lovely to see TalkBeckyTalk at the end, I hope you both had a fun evening !
Marcus Durnford Becky and I always have a good giggle together !! Thanks for watching :-) Sx
No idea why you haven't got more subs. Your recipes are INCREDIBLE. I've shared them with all of my friends at school.
Adam Ainsley aw thanks Adam. It's the way TH-cam works, they either promote you big time or not at all... but mighty glad to have you along eitherway, and hey - you're a trend setter! haha.
Just tried the bonfire and cinder toffee recipes and both worked a treat. Thanks.
Could you suggest some sweet/candy cookery books? Love the videos and recipes.
O this takes me back... As childer we used to make this, and toffee apples. That was back in the ancient times when we used to play bobbing apples, and passing an orange under your chin to one another (we were a large family). Many thanks for sharing Sacha x
0003Zeb Ah I remember all those games in the 70's !!! Somewhere life seemed much easier back then ?!? Have a fun evening if you're heading out to a firework display xx
Childer.. haha haven't heard that in a while
How to add how long you can store it
Would a meat thermometer do the job as well ?
Thanks
+jaygbly Unlikely as meat thermometers don't usually go hot enough to deal with sugar recipes :-(
If it goes up to the same temperature, I don't see why not.
I just love toffee when it is hard and chewy (soft caramels).
Halloween kisses are my favourite with that wonderful molasses flavour but impossible to find after October!
Thank you I will try it.
Is this the same method as claggum/clack?
Love your videos sacha please can you do a cheesecake as they are my favourite xx❤️
Alicia Letts Ah thank you for letting me know :-) I made a peanut butter cheesecake a while ago now th-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=mr7Pd0GzC1I I am also planning on making a fruity one before Christmas :-) Sx
In Welsh we call it "Loshin Du" it translates to "Black Sweet(s)" or for the Americans "Black Candy"
Song?
Your toffee looks delicious Sacha, I used to make great toffee years ago using condensed milk, but I lost the recipe, I'd love to make it again, any ideas Sacha, I'd be so grateful if you do, and pass it on. The best thing about it was you could add nuts, fruit, cover in chocolate. A good batch could even rival Thorntons .. Hugz and loves xxxxxxx
Elaine Howard Ah ! I have a Christmas Toffee that uses condensed milk, maybe you should come over and film it with me :-) ! Sx
Ahh Sacha you are such a wonderful man, and if I had the courage I would love to come and see you. But alas I'd be so worried I would spoil things for you, I just wouldn't be able to. But a million thank you's, loves you to bits sweetheart. Hugz xxxxxxxxxxxxx
The link to the recipe seems to be broken? 😔
Can you do how to make cinder tofee it always fails for me XD
George Eden Your wish is granted! th-cam.com/video/NtAJEOE57IQ/w-d-xo.html (I did that a while back, check it out)
Are you using unsalted butter?
+mimi19903 Yes... but it wouldn't be the end of the world if you used unsalted (salted caramel is always such a treat. Though it wouldn't necessarily carry through in a big way)
I don't know what im doing wrong but iv just made it twice as in the video and it hasn't set, its very soft. any ideas?
The temperature is off. You should take it to
146°- 150° c It's called the Hard Crack Stage. The temperature Sascha gave is the soft crack stage.
Same here
I like the video . But hate the music.I will make this toffee Thanks
I'd love to make some bonfire toffee as my mum used to make something similar when I was a child in the 80's. Please can someone tell me though how easy it is to clean the pot after? It's the only thing that's stopping me from making it! lol.
Just use boiling water and it'll dissolve and come right out!
+Josh Philliban Thank you Josh, that's a great help! :)
Soak it in warm water straight away
Ivory beige Thank you :)
Cover remaining toffee in pan with hot water and washing up liquid as soon as you can after use. leave to soak overnight then clean with a wire scrubber it should come out no problem
I LOVE bonfire toffee. You know you've got a good batch when you fear for any fillings in your teeth.
😭😭😭😭😭 tried it.... never set,
Remember, remember, the 5th of November... B)
ugh rinnyys Gunpowder, treason and plot. I see no reason, why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot. :-)
The English sure are proper gents.
Great skills but drop the crap music spoils your video
Am I the only one that just shatters it with a hammer to get the pieces ?
You're using a bit too much to wrap but ok just a bit of a waste of money and doesn't look as good
