Anyone have exact recipe for sea foam?

[Ratpack]

Or at least that is what I have heard it called. I know it consists mostly of eggs or egg whites and sugar but not sure the exact ingredients and how much. Can anyone help?

Thanks!!

Not sure which one you want. But I got these from Allrecipes

Old-Fashioned Sea Foam Candy
This old-fashioned candy recipe is light and airy, which
is the reason it is called 'sea foam'. Makes 2 quarts
(16 servings).
Printed from Allrecipes, Submitted by Holly
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 pound white sugar
1/2 pint water
4 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
12 ounces semi-sweet
chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening
1 (1 ounce) square
unsweetened chocolate


Directions
1 Butter or oil an 8 inch square baking pan; set aside.
2 Put sugar, vinegar, syrup, and water in a heavy 4 quart
saucepan (cast iron if you have it). Gently heat the mixture,
stirring with a wooden spoon, until sugar has dissolved and
syrup has melted. Bring to a boil, cover and boil for 3
minutes, then remove lid and boil until temperature reaches 285
degrees F (140 degrees C) on a candy thermometer. Remove from
heat and stir in the baking soda, mixing well to allow
bubbles to subside a little.
3 Pour hot mixture into prepared pan and leave until just
beginning to set. Mark into squares with a lightly oiled knife.
Leave to set completely. Cut or break into pieces.
4 Combine chocolate chips, shortening, and baking
chocolate in a 2-quart glass bowl. Microwave on High for 2
minutes to melt. Stir with a wooden spoon. Dip candy pieces
into chocolate, covering completely. Let cool on waxed paper.
5 Wrap individually in waxed paper, twisting the ends
together, and store in an airtight container.

1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar
1/3 cup water

double boiler. Cook over briskly boiling water, beating with a rotary beater

2 Remove from boiling water, add vanilla extract and continue beating
until frosting holds definite peaks.
3 Spread between layers of cake and then frost the sides and top.

Has anyone made this before? It sounds really good. Have you made it before Ratpack or eaten it? What is it like? Is it like meringues?

I have had it before and it is hard to explain, but it is a great little sweet.
