Method

• Put the water then the sugar into a pot and place on high heat
• Bring to the boil and continue until it goes a golden brown colour
• The darker the brown the stronger the caramel flavour but also the greater the chance of getting a bitter taste if you go too far
• Once you’ve got to the desired colour, remove from the heat and immediately add all the cream in one go (be careful as it can spit)
• The caramel will solidify at first but then dissolve into the cream
• Once the cream is at a boil and the caramel has dissolved in remove from heat and allow to cool
