Harlo, Sandy here
1/2 = how many grams? How to measure in cups?
Hi Sandy,
1/2 cup caster sugar is about 85g, 1/2 cup whipping cream is about 125ml. Use a measuring cup if you have one set of measuring cups, it come in difference sizes from 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2cup, etc.
Hi, I made the caramel sauce, but why did it harden after I'm done cooking. If I put it in the fridge & bring it out tmr, will it soften up. Now it's hard like rock, I noticed you didn't add butter, does it make any diff?
Hi Anonymous,
The caramel sauce shouldn't be harden. Did you stir till the caramelized sugar melted after the whipping cream was added? The caramel sauce will harden only when it is store in the fridge.
