- Thicker or thinner sauce. This is a fairly thick caramel sauce. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add more cream, a tablespoon at a time, until it's the consistency you like. For an extra thick sauce, reduce the cream to one third of a cup.

- Reheating. The caramel sauce will become quite solid after refrigerating. You can take it out ahead to allow it to come to room temperature, or you can use the microwave to heat the sauce if you want to serve it warm.
