Confession: I generally crave salty foods over sweet ones. Give me a burger, potato chips, or fries and I am one happy girl. But one dessert that I cannot seem to pass up on? Salted caramel. I have always loved caramel. Either as a sauce to put on my brownies, ice cream, or apples, or inside a chocolate bar, and in ice cream form. I love it all.
And when it's salted? Even better. The sea salt complements the caramel so well, adding a little salt to an otherwise extremely sweet dessert. And this is probably the reason that I love it so much. The salt works to enhance and complement the sweetness, making for one delicious and highly irresistible treat.
But what I don't love? How I feel after eating these foods. They are fattening, full of sugar, and other additives, and don't provide many nutritional benefits. So instead, I turn to Salted Caramel exante Shake.
