National Caramel Day

Caramel is a type of candy or confectionery made by heating sugar, often with butter or cream, until it melts and turns a golden brown color. The resulting mixture is then used as a flavoring or topping for desserts such as ice cream, cakes, and pies, or as a filling for chocolates or other candies. Caramel can be made in different consistencies, depending on the amount of heat applied and the ingredients used. Soft caramels are chewy and pliable, while hard caramels are more brittle and breakable. Some recipes also call for the addition of flavors such as vanilla, salt, or chocolate to enhance the taste of the caramel. Caramel is a popular flavor in many desserts and candies and is enjoyed by people all over the world.
