Caramel

Caramel

Everyday

Caramel is a sweet confection created by heating sugar until it melts and undergoes caramelization, developing its characteristic golden-brown color and rich, buttery flavor. Often enhanced with dairy ingredients like butter or cream, it ranges from soft, chewy textures in candies to viscous sauces used in desserts and beverages. While primarily valued for its sweetening properties, caramel provides minimal nutritional value beyond carbohydrates and should be consumed in moderation by those monitoring sugar intake.
