Fab Five - Caramel

As I was standing in the local patisserie, trying desperately to make a decision, I realized that I should add caramel treats to my list of Fab Five topics.

Salted Caramel Truffles

I adore the sweet-savory flavors combined. Salted caramel does this so well. Photo of my local patisserie's case.

Caramel Apple Spice

Spiced apple cider with a heavy dose of caramel? Oh, yes please!! The secret to this winter beverage? A great apple cider. Photo via

Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce

I make a big pan of this and have it for dessert. Or breakfast. Whatever. Stay tuned for a recipe for not only great bread pudding but also a fantastic caramel sauce.

Caramel Wool Coat

Such a great wardrobe basic. Invest in a good coat and it will last nearly a lifetime. The one pictured is a baby coat(!) from Zara.

Fantabulous Caramel Leather Bag

Ooh la la! That's about all I can say. Besides WANT! that is.  This particular bag is Marc Jacobs, but it's a pretty traditional style.
