What goes well with caramel?
Caramel and caramel candies pair very well with flavors like apple, vanilla, and chocolate. It’s a very versatile sweet that adds warmth and a nutty flavor to desserts or is enjoyed on its own as a soft caramel square or hard candy. Caramel is also a sweet treat that is enhanced by salt. Try caramel drizzled over popcorn or used as a dip for salted pretzels.
Can you make caramel at home?
Caramel is essentially heated sugar that has been cooked until it darkens and melts. You can make caramel into a sauce, a hard candy, or a soft and chewy confection. To make your caramel, you just need a saucepan for boiling along with cane sugar, butter, and salt. Some recipes use corn syrup, brown sugar, heavy whipping cream, and other ingredients to make variations of caramel and caramel sauce.
What can I do with caramel candy?
If you have some soft caramel candies on hand, you can easily toss a few chopped-up candy bits onto the top of ice cream, stir them into brownie batter, or even melt them into a warm bowl of oatmeal for a caramel swirl. Hard caramel candies can be crushed up and used as a topping for yogurt or ice cream. You can also stir candy pieces into cookie batter, crispy rice cereal treats, or frosting for sugar cookies or a cake.
