  • Place the cream, butter, and salt in a small pot and heat until the butter is melted, the cream is steaming, and the salt is dissolved.

  • Place the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a larger pot, and place over medium high heat.  
  • Cook, swirling the pot occasionally, until a rich amber color.  
  • Pour in the cream mixture, and whisk together as it bubbles down.  
  • Continue to cook the caramel on medium heat, until the temperature measures 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer.

  • While the coating is still warm, coat with assorted garnishes.
