I had a problem with the Peanut Butter Honeycomb, and haven't dared to try it again yet. First, I did NOT want filled Honeycomb, simply the Molasses Honeycomb, which I'd planned to enrobe once cut. But I'm new at pulling, and Greweling's book (as much as I love it) is rather sparse on the topic. Since the honeycomb is supposed to have air holes, and mine turned out dense and airless, I'm guessing I either pulled it too much, or incorrectly (I twisted it during some of the pulls, as Greweling's book instructs). There were plenty of airholes from the baking soda when I poured it out -- I stirred in the sifted baking soda VERY quickly. So there was something about the way I pulled it that completely eliminated the airholes by the time I was done. I've examined molasses honeycomb chips from some stores, and MAN, those airholes are regular and orderly -- it almost looks as if they were added by machine! Any advice would be greatly appreciated in regards to pulling the honeycomb. --Josh
