What is caramel ?
The definition of caramel according to the Larousse Gastronomic dictionary:
"Caramel is a sweet confection, often square in shape, made with a mixture of sugar, cooked glucose syrup, to which is added dairy products (fresh powdered or concentrated milk, butter, cream) vegetable fat, and flavourings.
The variety of caramel (hard or soft caramel, fudge, hopge, toffee) depends upon the ingredients, the degree of cooking, the shape of the finished product and its flavour.
In France, the town of Isigny, famous for its milk, manufactures the most highly regarded caramels".
Caramel is a "classic" confectionary, it is one of the most common sweets made with sugar and is known worldwide.
The Arabs invented caramel around the year 1000 by perfecting the processes of settling and purifying sugar cane syrup.
The word "caramel" originates from Spanish, which in turn originates from the Latin "cannamella" meaning "sugar cane"
