About Caramel sauce

Caramel sauce is a rich, golden-brown topping made from a simple combination of sugar, butter, and cream. Originating from France and widely beloved in Western cuisine, it’s a versatile addition to desserts like ice cream, cakes, and fruit. Its sweet, buttery flavor is achieved through the caramelization of sugar, which gives it a deep, complex taste. While delicious, caramel sauce is high in sugar, calories, and saturated fat, so it should be enjoyed in moderation. It does not provide significant vitamins or nutrients, but its indulgent flavor can make it a satisfying treat when you want to enhance your dessert. Opt for homemade versions or those with simple, recognizable ingredients to avoid unnecessary additives or preservatives.
