Caramel Kitchen Salted Caramel Sauce

With a deep toasty flavor and a pronounced saltiness, this silky-smooth caramel sauce is made by hand the old-fashioned way. Stephanie and Brad Hunter, the husband-wife team behind the company, started Caramel Kitchen in their garage using only copper pots, which are prized for their ability to heat up and cool down quickly, making it easier to control the temperature of boiling sugar. This best-selling caramel sauce, made from only five all-natural ingredients, is a touch saltier than others we’ve tried—in a good way. The sauce brings a depth and richness to desserts because of salt’s innate ability to enhance flavors. And we love their functional packaging: a squeeze bottle means measuring out the sauce (or drizzling it over everything) is a neater, easier affair.

His salted butter caramel with crushed nuts won acclaim as the best sweet in France by the Salon Internationale De La Confiserie in 1980, perhaps inspiring Pierre Hermé, a famed macaron maker, to debut his salted caramel macaron in Paris a few years later. Since then, salted caramel has grown in popularity: The balanced combination of light salinity and a toasty sweetness has become a mainstay in desserts.
