WHY THIS SALTED CARAMEL SAUCE IS PERFECTION!
Its perfection because of its versatility to achieve so many ways to utilize itself in recipes, desserts, gifts and even milkshakes! Other than just eating it straight from the jar (which I’ve been known to do on occasion!) take a look below for some interesting other ways to implement your sauce.
SIMPLICITY
This recipe is very elementary. With only 5 ingredients and only 6 minutes to cook, you’ll be indulging before you know it! The simple ingredients are, butter, brown sugar, golden syrup, cream and flaky salt!
FROSTINGS & ICE CREAMS
I love to add this salty yet sweet sauce into my frostings, buttercream and ice creams. It will elevate the flavors and bring new depths of aroma to your buttercreams & ice creams. Try it for yourself.
FLAKY SALT
Getting the right flaky salt is extremely important…. why you ask? Because if you use the good old table salt, you’re going to get a very different salty taste than if you’d had added in a good quality flaky salt. A good quality flaky salt will add acidity and help bring the sweetness in together as a sweet harmony! I use Maldon Flaky Sea Salt.
DESSERT
Desserts are another great way to maximize your salted caramel experience. Simply pour the hot sauce over bananas, brownies or your favorite ice cream! YUMMO!!
GIFTS
For a great gift idea simply pour the salted caramel into sterilised jar, allow to cool, then wrap with pretty ribbon and give as a gift to someone special. Attach a little note saying “An ideal accompaniment to ice cream, desserts and cakes”.
CHILLING
If you manage to keep your salted caramel in the fridge for more than 2 minutes hehehe, then you can chill it for several weeks before it needs to be eaten up.
MILKSHAKES
You can’t beat a good salted caramel milkshake! Add 1 tablespoon of salted caramel into your milkshake with a scoop of ice cream and teaspoon of peanut butter….oh my word, that’s too good!!!
CUPCAKES AND CAKES
Utilise your salted caramel even more, but spreading it over layers of your favourite Cakes or filling your Cupcake cavities with giant spoonfuls of yummy gooey-ness!! Arrrgghhh I’m so hungry!!
Well folks I think we can all confess that we’re drooling all over the place right now and dreaming of the creamiest, most decadent, gooey salted caramel sauce going straight into our mouths!!
So, without going on anymore, go get some!
