8 Caramel Desserts We Have to Try

We definitely love our rich, creamy Bay Area made caramels. But we love desserts featuring caramel almost as much!

It’s no secret that the COVID-19 pandemic has created show-stopping chaos all over the globe. It’s also driving extremes - some industries are booming (bleach, anyone?!), and others are bust (RIP, global travel). Many people are unfortunately out of work - others are slammed and working 24/7. Some have similar routines but are now trying to manage working from home, childcare, and homeschooling. It’s a topsy-turvy place and the end isn’t quite in sight.

But don’t despair! We’ve rounded up some of the most delicious-looking, Pin-worthy caramel desserts which we can’t wait to try and share. From dripping caramel sauce to caramel biscuits to caramel-covered cheesecake - can we mention caramel again?!

If you don’t have anything to do, check out the below to take a mental health break and BAKE! If you’re busy as a bee, hopefully you can find the time to sneak in a peak or even a quick make.

We’ve drawn from our Pinterest account (check it out for gorgeous pins) and linked sources below!

DARK CHOCOLATE & SALTED CARAMEL MACARONS

If you’ve made macarons, you know they can be finicky. What should be a light, easy, gentle cookie can easily turn into a pretty miserable bake. However, we’re willing to give it another go for these scrumptious-looking salted caramel chocolate macarons.
