Here is a recipe for Molasses Honeycomb, from a Woman's World Magazine from the '20's.
3 cups molasses
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp lemon extract
1 tbsp vinegar
Boil molasses, sugar, water and vinegar to the brittle. Stir in soda. This will make mixture foam, so use large enough kettle. Add flavoring and turn in very thin layer into buttered pans. Cool quickly. This candy should be very porous.
