Hi Melanie,
I made this (again) yesterday and used the Vegan butter of yours instead of the coconut oil, only cause I was too lazy to get a new container out. It worked well, only slightly less firm in the fridge overnight and the flavour is only just a little milder, but worked well - fyi.

This is wonderful (and dangerous), the flavour is so good. Thank you.

My go to recipe for anything salted caramel.

I made this for my husband's birthday cheesecake (AMAZING recipe thank you!). We had always eaten it plain but this time I thought I'd make it a little more special with the sauce. I didn't think it tasted like caramel, I followed the recipe exactly. But my husband tasted it and his first response was "this tastes like bacon." I didn't taste the similarity and honestly it wasn't my favorite sauce (and I'm a huge caramel fan), but anything vegan I can make that can get my husband to say it tastes like bacon is a winner in my book.

In reply to kay. I haven't tried it but I think it would technically work. I'm not sure on quantities though without trying it myself. They might need adjusting. However, coconut sugar will give it a much better more caramel-y flavour. It works so well in this recipe and will taste completely different if you use something else.

Could you use honey, maple syrup or rice malt syrup in place of the sugar?

In reply to Susan. On vegan ice cream it is amazing!!! I'm so glad you ignored your 'weird' feelings! This recipe happened accidentally. I thought I had used cashew butter and grabbed tahini by mistake and didn't realize until it was too late. I thank my lucky stars I made that mistake because it's so good, (as you have discovered)! Have fun experimenting with it....on everything!!!

I thought the tahini was a little weird and couldn't imagine how sesame seeds could have anything to do with the taste of caramel, but I took your word for it on how delicious this is and went ahead and made this. So glad I did because you're right, this is amazing! And I even forgot to add the salt! Instead of water, I used raspberry juice. I was hoping it would come out red for a Halloween concoction I was attempting to make. That didn't work out (the brown overpowered the red), but I'm so happy I found this recipe anyway because this is a keeper. Can't wait to try it on my vegan ice-cream!
