SmartSaver cupcake

I'm doing design works for iPhone Apps. One of the apps I'm working on has just been released, called "SmartSaver". It's a kind of finance app that helps you save money. And...., the icon of this App is the piggy on these cupcakes!! His unique eyes are hard to ignore!

Yesterday, we met up with the developer of this app, his wify, a friend of ours and his girlfriend for an app release celebration dinner. I brought these cupcakes. As well as it had the iconic piggy on top to promote the app, it's a honeycomb cupcake which our friend, Andrew, gave me the idea of. Thanks to him, crunchy and sort of biscuity cake was lovely and addictive.

Honeycomb is a great fun to make! Try this mini science experiment, and of course... SmartSaver!

Ingredients;

Sugar 100g
Golden syrup 3 tbsp
Bicarbonate of soda 2 tsp

1. Put Sugar and Golden syrup in a pan. Place the pan on a low heat for about 10 minutes. Stir well to prevent burning it. 
2. As soon as the syrup reaches the stage where dropping a little syrup into a glass of water and it snaps cleanly, remove the pan off the heat. Add Bicarbonate of soda and mix well. You'll see a little volcano.
3. Pour 2 into a cake tin. Let it cool, then break it into chunky pieces.
