Sugar. It's what you make caramel with anyway. And the syrup is just liquid sugar.

Just use brown sugar instead. These days, I use coconut sugar, it gives a lovely caramel taste and colour to anything you put it in and you don't need to use so much either.

Would you be willing to share the recipe for the Salted Caramel sauce rai5?

Golden syrup, glucose, corn syrup,maple syrup or honey can be put in the caramel. It stops the sauce from forming sugar crystals. You can leave it out too but just make sure your sugar is dissolved well before it comes to a boil.

It is in the previous issue of North & South magazine and is a Nadia Lim recipe for a topping for a brown sugar pavlova.

Golden syrup also comes in small squeeze bottles so you don't necessarily have to buy a can.

You can also buy only what you need for a recipe, at Bin Inn. Take ytour own small pottle or buy one of theirs for a few cents.

Umm. if it's requested politely, it's considered polite to share the recipe, when you have time - many live in areas where they may not have access to specific recipes, even from the library. Yes, it takes time, but it's the polite thing to do (imho - and that of most others).
Sounds too sweet for me (and no, I'm not at all adverse to sugar!), but for those who want to try, there they are :)

I had no golden syrup so used sugar. perfect. I tried it with brown sugar and went a bit chewy. Beautiful flavour. Bought golden syrup and the caramel is too gooey (twice)

Thanks for the comments. I did wonder about how sweet it might be as none of us are really sugar people.
