It’s important to remove it from the heat once the color turns, so it doesn’t continue to caramelize or burn. Since oven temperatures (especially gas vs. electric) vary, and pan size, it’s more important to watch for the color change, rather than an exact minute of time. After the butter has melted and combined with the caramelized sugar, stir constantly as you very slowly pour in the heavy cream. Since the heavy cream is colder than the hot caramel, the mixture will rapidly bubble when added. After all the heavy cream has been added, stop stirring and allow to boil for 1 minute. It will rise in the pan as it boils. If you’d like to be precise and use a candy thermometer, the temperature will rise to about 220°F (104°C). Vanilla Extract: I like adding a little vanilla extract to round out the flavors and give the syrup more depth.

Light whipping cream (30% milk fat), or double cream (48% milk fat) may be substituted. Do not use milk. Room-temperature cream is best. The wet method is a bit more complicated. You have to take the sugar and moisten it in a pan with a bit of water. As the water dissolves it distributes the sugar and promotes even browning. However, as the sugar caramelizes, the water boils off, and so the wet method allows for a slower caramelizing process which supports more complex flavors. Because the sugar browns slowly, it’s also easier to create a light or medium brown caramel instead of a dark one. What Can Go Wrong When Making Caramel?When used as a substitute, the creaminess takes over the sweetness. It does not contain any sugar, so if needed, sugar can be added. Don’t have butter extract. Well, we have substitutes for it as well. Salted Rosemary Caramel Sauce : With a heavy dose of salt, savory notes from the rosemary, and tart zing from boiled cider, this herbaceous sauce has even more complex flavor than standard caramel. It’s also slightly simpler to make — the recipe has all the ingredients combined in a saucepan at the beginning; from there, simply cook and swirl until it reaches the desired color and temperature. When it comes to the color of caramel extract, you know it already. It is dark brown in color and has a thin, watery consistency that makes it easy to blend well with other ingredients in your recipe.
