In a saucepan, put the sugar and water together, and then put it on medium heat, not stirring it until the sugar and water become a deep amber colour. This usually takes about 10 minutes.

After caramelizing the sugar, add the heavy cream cautiously; it may bubble up, so be careful. Stir until it is smooth in texture. Switch off the flame and add butter and salt for the desired taste. Before you can use it in your foam, let it cool.

 Cold Foam Base

For the cold foam base, you need:

  • Heavy cream :- 1 cup
  • Milk :-  1/2 cup
  • Vanilla extract :- 1 teaspoon
  • Sweetener :- 1-2 tablespoons (optional)

Put the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla extract inside a mixing bowl, take a hand mixer or froth mixer device to whip this up until the mixture is light and frothy- should take around 2-3 minutes.

If you want a really sweet foam, just mix an appropriate sweetener while doing so. Aim at a flavor balance in kind with the caramel sauce minus overdoing sweetness.

Salt Integration

Integrating salt is crucial for enhancing the caramel flavor. You’ll need:

  • Sea salt or flaky salt :- 1/4 teaspoon

The sea salt or layered can be added to the pan after the caramel is done; this adds a touch of tasty notes balancing out the sweetness.

With the cold foam, a pinch can be added on the top upon whipping for looks and to give an extra burst of flavor with every sip. Adjust the salt according to taste so that it does not overpower the caramel.

You have to merge the heavy cream, salted caramel sauce and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Measure carefully because the taste really matters. If not salty enough, add a very tiny pinch of salt to enhance saltiness. Stir very gently to combine.

This will form the base for your cold foam. All ingredients should be at room temperature before they are mixed together.

Whisking to Perfection

You can make the foam using a whisk, electric mixer, or frother.

  • Using a whisk: Mix by hand. Start slow, then go faster until it becomes foamy.
