Tips for Making Delicious Caramel:

1. Choose the good stuff: Use high-quality butter for the tastiest caramels. Remember, the better the butter, the better your caramels will turn out. Yum! 🙂
2. Handle with care: Caramel gets really hot, so be cautious while cooking. When you add cold butter to hot caramel, it can create some exciting sparks. Stay safe and be careful.
3. Brown it right: Don’t rush! Wait until the sugar is completely browned before adding butter or cream. This ensures your caramel will have that perfect color and flavor.
4. Add a pinch of salt: To balance out the sweetness, a little salt goes a long way. Opt for sea salt over iodized salt for a more flavorful touch.
5. Take it easy: Melting sugar takes time, so be patient. Avoid burning it by keeping an eye on the heat and stirring gently. We don’t want any burnt caramel disasters!
