You don’t have to worry about us Canadians, we have both dark and light golden syrup, we’re all good.

I live nearly directly in the middle of the US amidst corn, milo, wheat, sunflowers, and soy so getting golden syrup here is expensive. However, I did find a recipe to make my own, and I cannot wait to test it out! I thought I was stymied by shipping costs and exotic ingredients, but I was so wrong. It is time consuming, but seems to be worth the effort, like Armenian Pumpkin Preserves.

I made candy a lot with my mom growing up. This is called honeycomb candy in most of the US, or seafoam candy along the Oregon coast. It is commonly made with corn syrup here. Common brand is kero. There are also recipes to make a golden syrup imitation all over online. They mostly recommend boiling table sugar and lemon juice.
If you live in a humid climate, the chocolate covering is all the better so it will last longer then an hour. Also, if you really want to get into candy making and don't have a candy thermometer, which my family never did when I was little, there is always the method where you test the candy in a bowl of cold water. Even after getting my candy thermometer, it's still my preferred method
