Instructions
  1. Gather all ingredients before starting the recipe.
  2. Combine sugar, corn syrup, orange juice, orange zest and a pinch of salt in a medium sized sauce pan placed over medium heat.
  3. Stir to combine the ingredients.
  4. When the mixture forms a foam, swirl the pan or stir with a wooden spoon. lf the mixture seems to rise in the pan, remove from heat and stir off the heat to reduce the level.
  5. Reduce heat and continue swirling/stirring until the foam forms larger bubbles and the color of the mixture starts to turn a golden brown.
  6. Remove caramel from heat, and add butter, stirring the mixture constantly. The mixture will rise and start to bubble rapidly,
  7. While still off the heat, add cream, and again stir constantly as the mixture will again rise and start to bubble.
  8. Continue stirring until the caramel is smooth, then transfer to mason jars.
