FRUIT CARAMEL
One way to extend the life of fresh fruits is to incorporate them into caramel sauces. Any caramel sauce base can be enlivened by ripe or slightly overripe fruit, such as bananas, strawberries and stone fruit. This fruit caramel sauce is an excellent way to add a deeper sweetness and a hint of the season to your favorite desserts.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook, stirring frequently, until it all melts into a light gold syrup, 5 to 6 minutes. Continue to cook to a golden brown color, about 1 minute more. Carefully add the fruit all at once and reduce the heat to medium-low. The hot syrup may bubble and become foamy.
- Continue to cook, stirring constantly until any hard clumps of caramel dissolve and the fruit pieces soften and break down, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salt and heavy cream until there are no white streaks then remove from heat. Transfer to a bowl and use immediately, or cool and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- Serve warm as a topping for ice cream, pies or tarts, or use as a caramel filling for layered cake or trifles. If cold, reheat gently in a small saucepan over low heat.
Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the caramel from scorching.
- Stir the caramel constantly to prevent it from sticking to the pan or burning.
- If the caramel starts to seize, remove it from the heat and stir in a little bit of cream.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
- Serve the fondue with a variety of fresh fruits, such as strawberries, bananas, apples, and pears.
- You can also serve the fondue with marshmallows, cookies, or pretzels.
- To keep the fondue warm, place it over a fondue burner or in a slow cooker.

Caramel fondue is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for parties or special occasions. With its rich, decadent flavor and variety of dipping options, caramel fondue is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give caramel fondue a try!
