Salted Caramelized Sugar has a flavor reminiscent of cotton candy. It’s incredibly delicious in coffee or whipped cream!
I came up with this idea a few years ago when I wanted to add a caramel flavor to whipped cream. Adding salted caramel sauce didn’t work well, as it deflates the whipped cream. This caramel sugar, however, does the trick!
There’s so much you can do with caramelized sugar. Try my Toffee Whipped Cream, made with salted caramelized sugar and whipped cream. The cold cream transforms the caramelized sugar into tiny toffee pieces—a dreamy frosting!
The color of the caramelized sugar affects the depth of its caramel flavor. The trick is to cook the caramel to a dark amber brown, which brings out an intense salted caramel flavor. But be careful not to let it cook too far.
