How do you thicken caramel?

To thicken caramel, you can continue to cook it over low heat, allowing more moisture to evaporate until it reaches the desired consistency. Alternatively, you can add a small amount of cornstarch or flour mixed with water to create a slurry and stir it in, cooking for a few more minutes. Another option is to incorporate heavy cream or butter, which can also help achieve a thicker texture while enhancing flavor. Always ensure to stir continuously to prevent burning.
