I thought I would send you an email to say thank you so much for creating these wonderful cake mixes, my family & I are hooked, we're going to try them all. Good value for money ! For my son's birthday, I bought a 500g packet of Toffee Cake mix and made 36 cupcakes, I had a little toffee mix left over so I mixed with some icing sugar and made a great toffee icing and finally decorated them with all sorts of toppings - they turned out a treat! The kids loved them and the adults did too. Big thanks to you all.

Deb's Tips

You only need five ingredients to make this easy homemade salted caramel sauce recipe. It is the best I have come across and fantastic on just about anything! I am sure you have all had a taste of it by now, it has been around since the late 70’s and created by Henri Le Roux in Brittany, famous for its salted butter. Henri created a salted butter caramel with crushed nuts winning him the "Best Sweet in France" in 1980 and known as caramel au beurre salé (salted butter caramel) – thank you Henri!
