I love this crock pot caramel idea. I had my caramel block for about a year, I couldn't figure out how to use it and finally threw it away!! Waahh. Now I know I could have melted in my crock pot, invited some friends over and dipped away! also they make these disposable plastic crock pot lines. That would make the whole thing even less messy. Also why not make some funky homeade candy turtles for your holiday giving, while the caramels hot, with some whole pecans and the leftover chocolate coatings?
Marian, NOW you think of all that! Sorry about your wasted caramel... But next time, you'll have all kinds of good ideas for it. Like simply melting and pouring over cake or ice cream, drizzling over cookies or scones or pancakes... :) PJH
