Bonfire Toffee – A Different Halloween Treat
03.10.2023 - 11:57 / hgic.clemson.edu
What comes to your mind when you think of traditional Halloween treats? For some, it is caramel apples; for others, it’s candy corn. Maybe there is another treat that is special to your family. There are many different treats and traditions around the world associated with Autumn and Halloween.
One such treat that comes from our friends ‘across the pond’ in England is called Bonfire Toffee. Bonfire Toffee is a hard, brittle toffee associated with Halloween and Guy Fawkes Day. Also known as Bonfire Day, Guy Fawkes Day commemorates the failed attempt to blow up the English Parliament in 1605. Today, Bonfire Toffee is appreciated as a symbol of the warmth and camaraderie often shared around a bonfire on cool Autumn evenings.
Bonfire Toffee is typically made with golden syrup, sugar, black treacle (molasses), and butter. There are variations of this recipe throughout England, each with its own local twist. The ingredients are heated together to create a thick, dark, and very flavorful toffee. Once it reaches the correct temperature, it is poured into molds or greased surfaces to cool and harden. The toffee is then broken into pieces for everyone to enjoy. The flavor is similar to butterscotch, although it is toffee and never a viscous liquid.
Candies such as Bonfire Toffee are a great seasonal addition to any Home-Based Food Production Law operation as it generally has a low water activity, making it non-potentially hazardous.
If you are interested in trying some Bonfire Toffee, try a recipe from Downton Abbey Cooks.

Healthy Halloween Treats
Costumes, and candy, and sugar! Oh my! That’s what comes to my mind when I think about Halloween. Children enjoy dressing up as their favorite characters, going door to door in the neighborhood, and filling a bag or bucket with candy. But with all that candy comes a lot of sugar. Children in the US consume up to 17% of sugar in their diet daily. Sugar is often hidden in packaged foods and drinks and is highly processed. It is often labeled with different names like high fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, honey detoxes raw sugar, and other names. Candy is a known culprit for its high sugar content. Too much sugar, especially in young children, can lead to issues with obesity, tooth decay, diabetes, and other health problems down the road.
