100 ml Dansukker Light Syrup, organic if preferred
50 ml Dansukker Glucose Syrup
300 ml whipping cream

Instructions
Combine the sugar, both types of syrup, cream and cocoa powder in a saucepan and boil for 20 minutes. Add the After Eights and acetic acid and stir. Cook for another 5 minutes. Do the ball test to check that the toffee consistency is right, or use a thermometer (120-125 °C). If not, cook for another minute until the right consistency is reached.
