In baking or candy making unsalted butter makes it easier to control the salt content, because each manufacturer has a different salt level. As for boiling point in candy making I'm not sure, but it's usually a much smaller amount of salt compared to salted water for pasta. I hope that helps. -SerenaSerena Bakes Simply From Scratchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497132642509064238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679376249136878227.post-17402687661622106202019-12-15T12:26:36.474-08:002019-12-15T12:26:36.474-08:00Do you use salted butter?

I know salt raises to boiling point of water.. so does it affect the caramelizing time-frame? Any advice would be appreciated.

Which can happen if you stir granulated sugar during caramelization:( Also the foil I feel might have caused the toffee to cook hotter causing the burt carsmelization, I really prefer parchment paper because it helps prevent scourching. I'm so sorry for your frustration, candy making can be a bit difficult. Please let me know if I can be of any more helpā„Serena Bakes Simply From Scratchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497132642509064238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679376249136878227.post-33755878732334756172014-01-29T13:50:15.186-08:002014-01-29T13:50:15.186-08:00I made this today, but I used 1 cup of butter and ...I made this today, but I used 1 cup of butter and 1 cup of dark brown sugar and sprayed the foil with nonstick spray. I stirred (per recipe) it came to a boil then I continued to stir for the 3 minutes. It was so difficult to smooth over the crackers. I gave up spreading and hoped that putting it into the oven at 400 degrees for 6 minutes would help it spread out. Nope. It was bubbly, but on the bottom of the crackers it a burnt caramelization. UGH! I'm not someone that enjoys baking and thought this was going to be an easy treat to make. Help!
