Yes, yet another day celebrating that wonderful creation, chocolate. This time it is teamed up with caramel.
Caramel, which covers a range of different finished products, is made by heating up sugars of many different types. The caramelised sugar has a distinctive colour - it's, not surprisingly, caramel coloured! - and can have different consistencies, from quite firm to quite gooey.
There are different confections and candy products that combine caramel and chocolate. Some, such as the Galaxy Milk Caramel, have a milk chocolate shell enclosing a soft caramel centre. Another is the dessert biscuit known as caramel shortbread, millionaires' shortbread and caramel slice amongst others, which is made from shortbread which is then covered with a layer of soft, but not liquid, caramel and finally topped with milk chocolate. It is frequently cut into squares.
