For best results, use a heavy-bottomed pot to ensure even heat distribution and prevent scorching. Stir the caramel mixture constantly, especially as it approaches the target temperature, to prevent burning. The cooling time is crucial for achieving the right caramel texture. Avoid the temptation to cut the caramels before they are fully set. If you prefer a softer caramel, you can cook it to a slightly lower temperature (around 245°F). For a firmer caramel, cook to 255°F.
