Take it to the next level with honeycomb (optional)
Combine 1 cup (200g) sugar, 1/4 cup (60ml) golden syrup and a pinch of salt in a large pot over medium heat. Stir every 2-3 minutes until the sugar has dissolved. Simmer for 12-15 minutes until mixture turns an amber colour. Remove from heat and vigorously whisk in 2 tsp (10ml) bicarbonate of soda until well incorporated and mixture is foamy. (Careful, the mixture expands four-fold.) Pour into a lined baking tin and leave to set for 30-60 minutes. Break into chunks and serve on top of cheesecake.
