Steps
- In a saucepan, heat the sugar and water over low heat without stirring until it caramelizes.
- When the color becomes amber, add the butter in pieces off the heat and mix. Remove from the heat when it starts to turn golden, the caramel will be too bitter if it turns brown!
- Add the liquid cream and stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth.
- Return the pan to the heat and bring to the boil. For a fairly liquid caramel, stop cooking after boiling. For a thicker caramel, continue boiling for a few moments and remove the mixture from the heat.
- Let cool and store in the fridge
