Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • cup water
  • 1 ¼ cups heavy cream or whipping cream
  • 1-2 teaspoon sea salt flaked
  • 2 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Tip the sugar and water into a large heavy based saucepan.
  2. Add a lid and heat over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved.
  3. Remove the lid, increase the heat and boil for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until you get a deep amber colour. (see notes)
  4. Remove from the heat and immediately add in the heavy cream and stir. Be careful as it will bubbly up quite a lot.
  5. Once the caramel has dissolved into the cream, add in the butter and salt.
  6. Stir well and then allow the caramel to cool before decanting into a jar.

Notes

  • Watch the caramel very carefully as it can go from pale sugar water to burnt caramel in the ring of a phone!cream and serve room temperature. I like to take the caramel to a deep amber, but if you want a milder flavour then remove it from the heat when it just reaches the amber stage.
