How to Make Weed Caramels: 6 Ingredients You Need
Before you start making weed caramels, gather these simple ingredients. The recipe uses pantry staples plus one special ingredient — cannabutter. Here is the full list:
- 200 grams (1 cup) white sugar
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) corn syrup
- 3.5 tablespoons of water
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) heavy cream
- 113 grams (1 stick) of cannabutter
- Optional: FECO or cannabis concentrate to increase potency
Combine the heavy cream and melted cannabutter in a separate container. Keep this mixture warm on a coffee cup warmer so it is ready to incorporate when the sugar reaches temperature. If you add FECO, stir it into the cream and butter mixture before combining.
Step-by-Step: How to Make Weed Caramels
Start by combining the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a pot on high heat. Keep the lid on initially — the condensation drips down the sides and prevents sugar crystallization. Once the mixture starts bubbling, remove the lid and insert a candy thermometer.
Heat the sugar mixture to 300–320 degrees Fahrenheit. A lower temperature around 300 degrees produces softer caramels, while 320 degrees gives you a firmer texture. Once you hit your target temperature, remove the pot from heat and slowly pour in the cream and cannabutter mixture while stirring constantly.
The temperature will drop dramatically — down to around 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Put the pot back on the stove and bring the combined mixture up to 240 degrees Fahrenheit while stirring continuously. Once it reaches 240 degrees, pour the caramel into a parchment-lined pan immediately.
