Before you begin

Cook the sugar syrup to 150°C, then add baking soda for the airy crunch that gives this latte its name. Make the candy first. It must cool completely before it will break into airy pieces.

Method 做法

01

Heat the sugar syrup

Prepare a lined heatproof tray. Put the sugar and 50 g water in a deep saucepan. Heat without stirring until the syrup reaches about 150°C (302°F).

Make the honeycomb

Turn off the heat and add the baking soda at once. Stir briefly as the syrup foams up, then tip onto the prepared tray. Leave untouched for at least 30 minutes until completely cool and hard. Break into pieces.

Build the latte

Dissolve the instant coffee in the hot water. Pour milk into a glass with ice if using, add the coffee and finish with shards of the cooled honeycomb. Add the candy just before serving so it keeps its crunch.

✦Why use a deep saucepan for the honeycomb?
Use a deep pan: the syrup expands rapidly when the baking soda goes in. Have the tray ready before heating the sugar.
