- Add sugar and water to a saucepan over medium heat. Allow sugar to dissolve in water.
- Turn heat up to medium-high and bring mixture to a boil. Allow it to boil until the sugar caramelizes, or turns brown, anywhere from 5-10 minutes. Do not stir as it is boiling, however you can brush any sugar that appears on the side of the pan down with a pastry brush.
- Once brown, remove the saucepan from the heat, slowly add in cream, and then the butter. Mix until smooth.
- Add the salt, tasting along the way until you reach the level of sweet-salty that you want.
- Store in refrigerator for up to two weeks.
