Step-by-Step Instructions
How to Make Caramel
Combine the Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine 5.29 oz sugar, 0.81 tsp water, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Stir gently to combine.
Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Allow the sugar to dissolve without stirring. As the mixture heats, it will begin to bubble and change color.
Watch for Color Change: Once the sugar syrup begins to turn a light amber color, reduce the heat to low. This process can take a few minutes, so be patient and keep a close eye on it to avoid burning.
Spread the Caramel: Tilt the saucepan carefully to spread the caramel evenly. Let it cook for an additional 2 minutes to deepen the color and flavor, then remove from heat.
Pour and Cool: Carefully pour the hot caramel into your pudding cups, coating the bottom evenly. Set the cups aside to cool while you prepare the pudding.
