 Aim: To make hokey pokey using sugar, golden syrup and baking soda.


When the sugar and golden syrup combine with the baking soda it froths and makes carbon dioxide gas. That is why the hokey pokey has bubbles.

Materials:
  1. 2 tablespoons Golden Syrup
  2. 4 tablespoons sugar
  3. 1 Heaped teaspoon of baking soda
  4. Pot
  5. Tablespoon and teaspoon
  6. Bunsen burner
  7. Grease proof paper
Method:
  1. Put 4 tablespoons of sugar and 2 tablespoons of golden syrup in a saucepan and melt.
  2. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 5 minutes
  3. Add baking soda and stir vigorously. 
  4. Put the hokey pokey on a piece of grease prove paper to to cool.
The more the sugar syrup is cooked the browner it becomes. If it is left cooking for to long your hokey pokey becomes burnt.
