Comments on: Almond, Cinnamon & Maple Brittle http://www.notquitenigella.com/2009/04/17/almond-cinnamon-maple-brittle/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

It smells so good with the maple, cinnamon and orange I have to say! :) Hi Rosa-Thankyou so much! :) Hi HedonisticHostess-Oh yes I empathise-been there done that! It's terrible when that happens and so hard to clean up! Hi justJENN-Thankyou! :D Hi Maria-You know you're absolutely right, it really does add a warmth to the flavour! :) Hi Anita-I know! A lot of people, myself included, would perhaps not want to let it go that long without a sugar thermometer but it needs to. It's a really great combination! :) Hi Steph-Absolutely, I think pine nut is a gorgeous addition in particular! :D Hi Pat-Is it like the Almond Roca that you buy from the shops? That would be a greta recipe to get a hold of! Hi Amanda-Well from America? :lol: Hi Arwen-Oh no, hat's too bad :( They're useful things I have to admit! Hi shez-Haha yes when it gets all bubbly! That's amazing they would let you do that as it's quite dangerous when it's hot. They certainly never let us do anything that exciting from memory! :lol: Hi Bethie-Haha! :lol: Hi Jen-I think so! I didn't think I'd use mine much but I have :) Hi Clare-Oops sorry thanks for that, I've rectified it. It's not a bad purchase and they're not that expensive I found. Hi Tiffany -Haha the dentist would probably say no but the tastebuds say yes I think! :) Hi Sara-Yep walnuts or any nuts would be great in it! :) Hi anna-It's quite fun and easy to make comparatively speaking and it makes a great gift! :) Thankyou! Hi Alexandra-Yup me too, I like to use other nuts instead of peanut (they're better nutitonally too) :) Hi belle-I learnt the hard way that sugars need a heavy based saucepan :lol: Hi snooky doodle-They really lift the flavour and make it beautifully complex! :) Hi Karen-It's a very useful purchase IO have to say! :) Hi yaelian-Hehe thankyou! :) Hi Chloe-Haha I wonder what her face would be like? I wonder if dentists eat lollies at all? Me too, I like the after feeling but not during :lol: Hi Arundathi-Ooh cashew brittle would be fabulous! :O Hi Angela-Hehe cool! Salty caramel chocolate coated almonds? Be still my beating heart! :o Hi Sophie-Thankyou! Haha yes true it's not healthy at all but a little bit doesn't hurt right? ;) I always try it but I give away most of it :D Hi Y-Yes sadly it's very moreish stuff which doesn't help! It's very good-even if I do say so myself! ;) Hi reddoorread -You're right to be, it can be dangerous and scorchingly hot. I actually think using a thermeter is safer though than putting some in cold water etc. Oh cool, they're so good aren't they! Hi 5 Star Foodie-Thankyou so much! :) Hi Su-yin -I know what you mean :) But this only fizzes a bit, not ferociously so so it's not so bad! :) Hi ingrid-Thankyou!YOu're more than welcome and I hope you like it! :D Hi The Duo Dishes-You do! I bet you'd have heaps of fun with one! :) Hi Iron Chef Shellie-Haha ok! Enough said! :lol: Hi Cakelaw-Thankyou! :) Hi Johanna-Sounds like you could make her some fantasic presents! I make some for my mum too who loves the stuff :) Hi grace-Hehe yes 300F is way too hot even for asbestos hands! Thankyou so much! :) Hi Jennifer-Aww shucks, thankyou! And coming from a Canadian that is very cool indeed! :) Hi Barbara-Thankyou! It smells so good with the maple, cinnamon and orange I have to say! :)
