Caramels Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com 

I made these caramels & instead of wrapping them in wax paper I just cut them up & put in an airtight jar for Mother's Day. The jar has embossed 'made by hand for you'. I also let a batch go beyond 250 & got great hard toffee which I covered in chocolate and sprinkled desiccated coconut over. Gorgeous.

I love all your recipes! I'm 16 years old. And I love baking it's my passion! You should me so many new recipes that I would love to try when I get time. But you're amazing! Please don't stop teaching baking shows! ❤️

You explain everything so well! Love it!

I love how you took the time to mention tips on how to clean the pan. Plus having metric saves a lot of conversion googling haha. Thanks for the video!

When the caramels have a grainy texture it's due to the crystallization of the sugar.

I hope she's fortunate enough to get her very own televised Cooking Show. She does a great job!

this woman is awesome! everytime i watch other youtube food channels, the hosts make all these dramatic, over the top taste tests (Im looking at you Laura). Stephanie comes across very genuine and down to earth, made her simple chocolate cake and boy was it good!

Loved your video, Stephanie. I will be making this.

this is one of the easiest recipes I have found on here! yay! can't wait to try it out. The other videos make it so difficult with all of them saying "oh you will know when you get this color and what not" suuure 🤔 I like that you just added everything and told by the temperature sooo much easier. thanks for the wonderful video.

Your voice relaxes me Thank you, great recipe

I love this video, not only for the recipe but for the (tons of) pro-tips you give like having all of the ingredients out already and spraying the measuring cup with oil to prevent sticking. Also, there is just something about you that's oddly comforting and I can't put my finger on the reason.

That pot cleaning tip is one of the smartest things I've heard in ages. Can't believe I never thought of it. Thanks!

i love your channel ❤️ you work so professionally🙌

Great tutorial, nice and slow, very nurturing voice. Thanks. Will be using this recipe to cover apples. :)

I love the way how you cook and how you talk when you are cooking

You are the perfect person to teach us how to do these goods, because you are so sweet! thank you for your videos! hugs from Brazil.

What a nice lady and a lovely presentation. They look yummy!

Thank you very much for your delicious recipe beautiful lady, greetings from Venezuela!

I've found this through WikiHow, which gives impressive information. Stephanie shares all of the golden nuggets that make it easy. 1. Have everything ready; butter, etc. 2. buttering the foil and also the measuring cup for the corn syrup. 3. About not resting the thermometer on the bottom of the pot. 4. Wrapping and refrigerating........wow. So much awesome to make the job worthwhile. Thank you!

Definitely going to be trying this method. What a GREAT job of explaining this process. And, I appreciated the "tip" on how to clean the dried on caramel. Wonderful presentation. Professional.

You have no idea how much it means to me that she also mentions the amounts in metric units.

I heat up milk in my caramel pot and make custard with it. Clean pot, clean spoon & delicious dessert!

i love how you explain in such detail so that people who are not familiar to baking (like me!) find it much more easier to try:-) thank u! lots of Love from Korea!

I made this recipe and topped the caramels with cherrywood smoked sea salt before cutting it, and gave it to my mom for a birthday present. She loved them. She saved some of them and froze them. Then this Thanksgiving she made the best yams I've ever had using about 10 of them. And the yams weren't sickening sweet. They had a complex flavor. I ate more yams than turkey. She baked 5 yams til tender, mashed them with some butter, added the caramels, then baked them. I tell you once you make the caramels it's the easiest, tastiest yam recipe I can think of. Especially if you freeze the caramels like my mom did. I bought the cherrywood smoked sea salt on Amazon. San Francisco Salt Co. Cheerywood smoked 5 oz. $6.49. I use it for special occasion dishes, even cocktails. You should try the yam recipe next time you make the caramels. It's hauntingly good.

Hello recommended, we meet again.

Geez this looks good. The holiday is a good excuse! The use of the foil sling does make a huge difference and extra butter on it just adds even more of that buttery, toffee, good stuff. I am losing the battle already when my grammar goes and the brain starts going into happy mode over caramel. Its so good! Favourite, even more so than chocolate!

Tried it, loved it! Tastes like drops of heaven. Thank you! I don't have a candy thermometer, but I cooked the caramel for 25 minutes like Stephanie mentioned and checked the consistency by pouring a few drops of the caramel into cold water, if it is soft and holds shape it is done...I checked as soon as it hit the 20th minute mark and then two more times just to make sure I don't overcook it. Hope this helps the people who don't have a thermometer.

Very pleasing to watch! I'm your newest subscriber & biggest fan. I've recently hit a road block in my life, where I've felt stuck. Your a great teacher & I can't wait to view more of your videos to better my knowledge and experience new ways to cook. Thank you very much👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for not forgetting the metric system.

I love the fact that you mention the cups as well as the grams/mililiters. There are so little youtube channels that do that and I have to go figure out how many grams or mililiters a cup or so is. So thank you :D

Hi Stephanie, Nice to see that you still find the time to answer people who send you comments on older videos. Lots of love from Belgium xxx Happy New Year

I wish I could hug you. I've made these and they are simply the best. Thank you. Love your cooking.

i absolutely love your video's please keep them coming!

Love it, love the channel, love the recipes, love the american way Mrs Stephanie make everything.

I used an 8" silicon square pan instead of the metal one. Still sprayed it with 'cake release' but didn't need to line it with parchment paper. The caramels came out so much easier

I just made these 3 hours ago and they are fantastic!!! That little bit of salt is key! Outstanding flavor and a soft chewy texture!!! I have made many of your recipes over the years and they have all been winners! Thanks for all your hard work!!!

I love your videos, you have a gift for teaching. Thank you. I do have a question. I bought some caramels at a local christmas craft show that looked very similar to these but they where infused with different flavours, like earl grey tea, Some had nuts as well. When would be the appropriate time to add those things. At the end when you added the vanilla or during the cooking process? Thank you again!

Wow!! Well done.

I am sure that it tastes heavenly! What I liked most in your video are the white roses on your background. Be well, happy, healthy and have a warm Christmas time!

just delicious and actually very easy, I have invested in a sugar thermometer and it's already paid for itself. A real treat that everybody will love as they are soft and really tasty

Thank you so much for this recipe it's so good!!

How do you make the ones like shown in the thumbnail representing this video. I was kind of disappointed and happy at the same time with this presentation.

Made these tonight for valentine's day gifts. Just great! Pretty easy! Thank you for a very professional demo!

Omg so good!!! These are de-LICIOUS!!!!! I couldn't stop eating the caramel while it was setting. By the time it set, all the corners were gone!! lol

Salted or unsalted butter? Can I substitute the corn syrup for something else. It's hard to get here in England.

would it look bad if i took that big brick of caramel and ate it by myself? not that i would do that eventhoughitotallywould

I did it! And I added peanuts too! It's sooo yummy! ..Thank you..and God bless you Stef! 😘

you are the best teacher so simple and easy to follow and thank goodness you say teaspoon and tablespoon...you know what I mean

you remind me of freddys mom from icarly HAHAHAHAHAHA

Hello madam Joy..I've been copying your recipe.I just wanna ask what other alternatives we can use instead of corn syrup..Thank you

I made this caramel and put it on apples to make caramel apples..It was amazing the caramel apples came out delicious. THANKS

Going to try this, and lots of good hints in this. For example, never thought of spraying my glass measuring cup for the Karo syrup!

God bless you

Why is it that American recipes almost always use corn syrup?

Thank you so much for the wonderful video on how to make these caramels. I tried another recipe from a different website and it didn't turn out. What it did however is make wonderful caramel sauce for your ice cream topping. I've been trying to find the perfect caramel recipe, and I believe I just found it. Your video and presentation was so well thought out and put together extremely well. I can't thank you enough for helping us out with making caramel candies. I can't wait to try out your recipe.

I made this recipe twice. Turned out awesome. My whole family loved it.

I disliked because she didn't scrape out all the caramel in the pot when she was pouring it out and that gave me a heart attack

these tastes AMAZING!! mine turned out a TINY bit too soft, but that was because of my thermometor. they taste just as good, or even better, than the ones you can buy, they are really good! :)

Thanks so much for this presentation, recipe and how you make it is so clear. I love the soft caramels, and they sell them at the supermarket wrapped in waxed paper like you did. Now I’m going to make my own and send some to our daughter if I don’t eat them all before!

I love your delivery. Sounds like my mum x

Made this recipe this week and it turned out amazing! Thank you!

Thank you Stephanie I'm making this for Easter Sunday as gifts and of course some for me.

I love your recipes! I have had trouble with my caramels crystallizing. I will try it again and make sure I DO NOT STIR while it's cooking.

I like how you're giving ways to keep it fresh for several weeks, but in reality if I were to give this to someone it'd probably be gone within a few hours.

Thank you for the delicious recipe, Stephanie.... Salutations from India!!🇮🇳🇮🇳

You need a candy thermometer as the temperature is very important. I have not tried honey so I couldn't say how well it would work.

My fave candy! Gonna make it this weekend. Thanks for the recipe. Its nice of you to share all your knowledge in baking..

Wow... this is execellent.... this is what im looking for .... simply cheap, tasty, simple & easy to do... love it....thanks stefanie...

I love caramels, i probably i make this to my childrens weekend... thank you for sharing your recipes...

Thank you very much Stephanie for all your recipes.

Just discovered your tutorials Stephanie (via Stollen) and glad I did. Really appreciate your approach- thoughtful, thorough and knowledgeable. You mention a digital thermometer and it looks like your using an induction “burner”. I have an induction cooktop and tried using my electronic thermometer on it. Took me a while to figure out that it doesn’t get along with all that magnetic, induction energy LOL! Back to the type you’re using here!

I need to make these! They would be so cute if you used a tiny cookie cutter to cut out little shapes and dipped them in tempered milk or dark chocolate with a little sprinkle of himalayan salt or seasalt on top. I can't wait to experiment with this!

Thank you for the recipe! The form you rolled the caramel reminds me of caramel made by Brach’s back in the day!

Love your vids. Out of all the cooking channels I watch on here, and have tried to make from....yours are the only ones that I have followed and have turned out exactly as they were supposed to :) thanks

I just made Caramels for the first time! Amazing!

yesterday I used your caramel recipe to make chocolate covered caramels and they came out great! thanks for your demonstration, couldn't of made them without it!😎

Loved it! She made it look so easy!

That was the best recipe ever!!!!!! My friend in my culinary class made it with me. We are most of it by ourselves. You not only made my taste buds happy but my dentist's paycheck happy too.

Would you share a carmel cake recipe? Thank you. I enjoy your recipes and how you explain every step.

This is a great, easy recipe! Friends & family all like it. I will add this to holiday gifts for sure. You really do have to be careful about the temp though, over 250 = harder candie. Thanks so much Stephanie, I really appreciate your videos.

I haven't tried it that way so I couldn't say how well it would work.

Ive made these several time and their awsome!! Pretty easy to make with a thermometer

I really enjoy watching you baking

Three things: 1. That looks delicious, good job! 2. Isn't it harmful to your kitchen counter if you place a very hot pan on its surface? 3. I admire you keeping your figure when making these wonderfully delicious things all the time! Most of us aren't able to store your goodies for (several) weeks, haha!

I always buy this caramel at whole foods, I love it, thank you for the recipe. I'll make it myself from now on. Well explained and like the tone of your voice.

I made these and they are best ever. Thank you Stephanie

Thank you Stephanie These look awesome. I plan on making some for the holidays.

If you’re in the UK like me you can also use GOLDEN syrup! Or wherever you live. Glucose syrup is also an option.

Great recipe made it yesterday and today it's easy and delicious. thank you for sharing! The family loves it!

I use your caramel recipe to make the best tasting infused caramels. Thank you!

I Absolutely Love her Voice! 😀

Stephanie, you are awesome! Please don't stop making vids!

Everything I make from your videos turns out fantastic. I'm definitely making these for Christmas and your chocolate chip cookies too. The lite fruit cake was fabulous. Happy holiday to you and your family. Shawn

Great video. Easy to follow steps. Can't wait to try them out. Thanks for sharing.

I absolutely love your recepies
