Combine sugar, water, soda, and salt in a large Dutch oven; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves.

Gradually add whipping cream, without stirring. Continue cooking over medium heat until mixture reaches hard ball stage (260u00b0).

Remove from heat; pour mixture into a well-buttered 15- x 10- x 1-inch jellyroll pan. Allow mixture to cool slightly.

Work mixture into a mound, using a buttered spatula or candy scraper. Pick up mound with buttered hands; pull, fold, and twist until candy is opaque and begins to stiffen. Divide candy in half, and pull each half into a rope, 1/2-inch in diameter. Twist ropes together, and cut into 1-inch pieces. Wrap each piece in waxed paper.
