I have such a mixed opinion on this one. I agree with everyone else about the wonderful flavor. I also agree about using a pot twice as big as needed because of the foaming after you add the b.soda. The foam took about 30 minutes to go away after the syrup was done. However - despite the great flavor - I could taste a slightly "carbonated" aftertaste of the baking soda. I had to refrigerate this syrup and wait until the next morning to reheat it in the microwave - then this baking soda taste was gone. I would recommend preparing this the day before you have guests over. Otherwise it does have the flavor everyone else says it does!

This is heaven on your plate. There will be no other syrup in our house from now on!! Kids and adults agree!

This is the best syrup ever!!! Never again will I be buying store bought syrup. The other reviews were absolutely right when they said it tastes like a liquid cinnamon roll. Yum. Yum. Yum. (Be sure you use a large saucepan to contain all the froth and foam.)

This was awesome, it was rather runny but thats ok. I did let it cool down while i made the pancakes but it still didn't thicken but was great not too sweet which is a nice change

I thought this was really good, albeit runny like some of the other reviews mentioned. It was hugely easy to make except for the baking soda making it bubble right up and over the side of the pan so I took it off direct heat when I added it. The second time I made it I used a teaspoon of cornstarch with the baking soda, thickened some but not enough to my liking. I personally think it needed a little more cinnamon and additionally I added some almond extract. This should be refrigerated right after using with all that dairy. I just pop it into the microwave for 15 seconds to warm it up. The next time I make it I am going to try a little more cornsyrup to see if it reaches the thickness I like. With syrup now over 4.00 it's a much better, cheaper alternative. I costed it out to about .80 cents per pint. Thanks for posting the taste is great. ***tip, if you don't keep buttermilk like me just use 1 teaspoon of vinegar added to the whole milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes and it will thicken and taste exactly the same.

Delicious. A "must" for our waffles. Can't really compare it to store-bought syrup. It's thinner but the taste is !wow! and it seems like I'm not constantly adding more syrup to the kids plates when we use this recipe.

I loved this. it does taste like a cinnamon roll. The syrup was thin but did thicken up when cooled down, still not thick like regular pancake syrup, but that was okay with me. it soaked into the pancakes really nice. My family loved this and i cannot say enough good things about this. simple to make and will absolutly make again. thanks for the recipe.

This was just okay. I may try again and make it so that I can thicken it up a bit. It was nice for a change but I don't think I am ready to ditch the store bought syrup just yet.

This was really sweet, but it's nice to have the recipe in case of those mornings when there isn't enough maple syurp to go around! My little girls thought it was wonderful, of course.

Wonderful syrup. I forgot to add the suger at the first step and added it at the end and it still turned out great! I will make this again for sure.

Very good. Did have to remove from heat once the baking soda was added. We thought it tasted great. Seems to thicken as it cools. My only question is how long does it hold for in the fridge? This recipe makes a lot of syrup for our little family of 4. A nice change from the store bought stuff.

This is great. The recipe says to serve it warm, but I would suggest lukewarm to room temperature - it gives the foaming action some time to settle down and the syrup will thicken a bit. We had this on waffles with fresh strawberries. Yum. Thanks for the recipe!

Excellent....but, dosen't look or taste like the traditional syrup (if that's what you are looking for). I think it was better! Just be careful to heat it in a pan that will be big enough, because when you add the baking soda it will bubble up and at least double in size before shrinking back down.

Delicious. Made exactly according to recipe.

This was really good. We didn't really think of it as syrup though. My husband made it while I was making pancakes and he agreed that its amazing but he says it should be put on top of cinnamon rolls, not really a syrup. Ours never really got thick either. The butter was separating from the cinnamon and sugar even when we let it sit out. Still very good, just not what we expected as a syrup.
