- For the caramel, store condensed milk, butter and syrup in a saucepan on a medium heat until the butter has melted. Increase heat and bring the mixture to a boil, while always stirring. It will start to thicken and turn a browner colour. Once your happy with consistency, take off heat and continue stirring as it cools down. Don't let it cool completely as it will harden.
