salted caramels
Savory-sweet confections
Salted caramels are candies made from caramelized sugar, butter, and cream, finished with a sprinkle or infusion of salt.
The salt heightens the sweetness and adds complexity, creating a balance that became wildly popular in the early 2000s.
Now a standard confection flavor: salted caramel ice cream, salted caramel sauce.
