Instructions

Lightly oil a sheet of parchment, a small press (such as a flat-bottomed cup) and a cookie cutter.
Melt the sugar in a small ladle or small pan over low heat, stirring gently, until it turns amber, 3 to 4 minutes. Take care: hot sugar causes severe burns.
Off the heat, stir in the baking soda; the candy will foam up and lighten.
Pour onto the parchment, press flat immediately with the oiled press, and stamp the cutter in gently.
Cool 5 minutes until set and crisp.

Tips

Do not overcook; dark sugar tastes bitter.
Work quickly after adding soda.
Soak the pan in hot water to clean.
Molten sugar can exceed 300 F (150 C); keep children away and never touch the hot candy with bare hands.
