Hydroscopic problems with uncoated honeycomb

[Je33]

Hello

I came across a bag of uncoated honeycomb (cinder toffee, hokey pokey) in a shop that was uncovered- I have no problem with my honeycomb but if left uncovered it becomes sticky and it got me thinking

anyone know any tricks for honeycomb, caramels etc so that they could for example be made into a bark( exposed bits of honeycomb) without being completely enrobed?

i have seen that I can buy tiny pieces of honeycomb (nibs) dipped  in cocoa butter but I want to make my own if possible as they didn't have the lovely aeration I achive and they were tiny!

 

thank you!

How about taking the bits and spraying with melted cocoa butter with an airbrush.

I thought that might work too, maybe a choc layer and then honeycomb, break up and then spray. 

im going to experiment later- I will post results 

thanks Kerry
