Caramels

Caramels are confectionery treats made by cooking sugar, butter, and cream together through the process of caramelization, typically at temperatures between 120 and 160 °C. The result is a treat with a distinctive golden-brown color and a rich, buttery flavor with slightly bitter undertones. They come in a variety of textures, from soft and chewy to hard and crunchy. In cooking, they are used as an ingredient in desserts, chocolates, sauces, ice creams, and baked goods. The caramel flavor is one of the most popular in confectionery. They can be flavored with salt, vanilla, nuts, or fruit.
