Who hasnt tasted honeycomb as a kid. I loved it. Theres a small story behind my obsession over honeycomb.

Me and my brother were in 3rd std and 2nd std respectively. We were still using pencils to write and the schools had just started.
Mom had purchased everything new, including new sharpeners. 2 for each of us.

So there was this roadside vendor who used to sell honeycomb and stretchable peppermint candy every evening and we used to buy it from him. Sometimes he used to make a watch or a bird out of the peppermint and break huge chunks of honeycombs, depending upon what we buy.
But the best part was he used to take stuff for it. Aluminium or steel. He would weigh it and give equal weight in peppermint or honeycomb.

So at times we used to sell broken utensils, spoons, bowls plates etc and at times we used ti pay money.

That evening, we didnt have any money, but the urge to eat honeycomb, and we realised we had 4 aluminium heavy sharpeners.
Me and my brother went to him with the sharpeners and happily got honeycomb.
Our mom caught us eating it and asked us how we got this. When she came to know, she scolded us and the uncle, as to couldnt he see this was new stuff, paid him and got the sharpeners back.

We were just too happy to be eating honeycomb.

So after so many years when i came to know that this is a 2 ingredient receipe and the easiest one of all, i tried my hand at it and was happy at the outcome.

Keep it thick for best results and effect.
