2. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
3. Add baking soda and stir vigorously.
4. Put the hokey pokey on a piece of grease prove paper to cool.
Explanation:
1. Why do we stir it? To mix it and to stop the sugar from burning
2. Explain why the hokey pokey rises and has bubbles? It's because the reaction let's off gas which then gets stuck. It rises because of the baking soda reacting.
