Sea salt caramel is a rich, buttery caramel made by slowly cooking sugar with cream and butter until it turns deep golden, then finishing it with a pinch of flaky sea salt. The salt doesn’t make it taste salty; instead it sharpens and balances the sweetness, giving a smooth, velvety sauce or chew with a complex sweet‑and‑salty flavor that’s especially good drizzled over desserts or paired with chocolate and coffee.​
