GOO GONE HOMEMADE

Steps:

• Combine the vegetable oil and the baking soda in a small bowl. It will be a somewhat thin mixture but not as thin as the real Goo Gone.
• Dip the edge of a piece of paper toweling in the mixture and then rub over the sticky stuff you are trying to remove. Keep doing this as needed. It will probably take a couple applications, but it gets to a point where the sticky gunk starts releasing and rolling off.
• Finish up by washing the item in warm soapy water.
• This makes a small batch, but with using a ratio or one part vegetable oil with two parts baking soda, you may make as small or as large of a batch as you need.

HOMEMADE HONEYCOMB

Steps:

• Butter the base and sides of a 20cm non-stick square cake tin. (If your tin isn't non-stick, butter, then line with baking parchment).
• Melt the sugar and golden syrup in a deep saucepan over a low heat, stirring. Don't let it bubble until the sugar has dissolved completely.
• Once melted, turn up the heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until you have an amber-coloured caramel (this won't take long, but if you have a thermometer, it needs to reach 150C, so it doesn't get sticky when stored). As quickly as you can, remove from the heat, add the bicarb and beat with a wooden spoon until it's all absorbed and the mixture is foaming. Immediately scrape into the tin, but be careful, as the mixture will be very hot.
• Leave to cool for 1-1½ hrs until the honeycomb is hard - it will continue bubbling in the tin as it cools. Break into chunks before packaging.
