Thanks for a great recipe! These turned out absolutely amazing. I sprinkled them with a little fleur de sel as well, they look cute and the texture is just right. I’m bringing a big bag of them home with me for the holidays.

At Humphrey Slocombe in San Francisco they sell caramels like these, but with lard. Now that you’ve shared this recipe I have no reason not to try my hand at them!

Made these carmels yesterday. They are AMAZING!!! Put a little sea salt on the top before wrapping them. Sent a package of them to our daughter at WSU. We met you and Gabe at Delancey the other night. Your boys are adorable! Thanks for the receipe!

I never realized that children could be cooking assistants. I may have to rethink this whole childless thing.

i have tried making salted caramels, but getting the sugar to the perfect temperature always confounds me!

I love the idea of making spiced caramels. I’m hooked on the salty kind.

Delicious. I never thought to add spices to caramel, but I have a feeling that they’ll balance the over-the-top sweetness very well. Thank you for this!
