What’s not to love about salted caramel, God’s nectar?!
I like my salted caramel lighter than the usual dark colour and flavour but all you need to do is cook it a minute or two longer to achieve the desired stage.
Use on pancakes, cupcakes, ice cream, lattes and in the Molten Lava Cakes with Salted Caramel.

Servings: 8 (makes about 200 ml / 4/5 cup)
Calories: 236kcal
Ingredients
- 250 g white sugar
- 50 ml water
- 100 g salted butter regular
- ½ tsp sea salt good quality – not table, please!
- 60 ml double cream
Instructions
- Place the water and sugar in a saucepan and heat on medium high heat, swirling the pan to get the sugar wet and to encourage it to dissolve and melt. Don’t stir.
- Keep cooking, swirling once or twice for 5-10 minutes until the mix is a lovely caramel colour. Go longer if you want a darker shade but be very careful, blink and you’ll have a burnt mess!
- When you’re happy with the caramel, take it off the heat and whisk in the butter gently until completely melted.
- Add the salt, stir well, with a wooden spoon.
- Finally, stir in the cream and vanilla. Taste. Add more salt if you like it saltier.
- It will keep in a clean container, covered, in the fridge, for 2 weeks, easily.
