Whats the difference between a caramel sauce and a butterscotch sauce?
A true caramel sauce is a standard white sugar caramel slow cooked to darkish amber then has cream added and the caramel ball that is there from adding the cold cream slowly dissipates as the cream heats and reduces. Reduce alot more if a fudge consistancy is required. A butterscoth is best made melting butter with brown sugar, stirring till dissolved, adding cream and reducing a little.
