How well does it keep?

Ashley, I'm not exactly sure how long it keeps because it doesn't last long in this house, but if I had to guess I would say it lasts a good while on account of all the sugar in there. As long as any jam, I'd say.

Yum. And I'm glad Ashley asked that!

He sooo loves caramel, and I have never had such a good recipe.

Thanks!
