Soft Liquorice Caramels
Thank you for stopping by my blog during the past years. It has been a fun but busy year, I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I have.
Christmas Night and Christmas Day came and went so fast this year. I love having my family and friends around me. My wish for next year, is to be more relaxed and enjoy the evening more.
I wanted to make these soft caramels and got inspired by a recipe on a Danish blog called Valdemarsro.
Happy holydays from my family to yours.
Makes 15-20 pieces.
Ingredients:
- 50 g light corn syrup, or glucose
- 100 g sugar
- 200 ml heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon sweet liquorice syrup
- 1 tablespoon raw liquorice
Directions:
Prepare a 9-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, and set aside.
Mix corn syrup, sugar and cream in a saucepan, and bring it to a boil, while stirring. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring every few minutes. The caramel is done when the mixture pulls away from the saucepan, when stirring, and you can see a slight crystallization when you stir. Mix in the liquorice syrup. Pour the caramel into the prepared pan, and sprinkle the raw liquorice on top. Let the caramel set on the kitchen counter for a few hours, before cutting into cubes. Wrap each caramel in parchment paper or wax paper and keep the caramels in a cool place in an airtight container.
Enjoy!
