Your caramels are now finished! If you do not wrap them, you can dip them in melted chocolate for a decadent treat. These caramels are also excellent in any baked goods that call for "soft" or "chewy" caramels as an ingredient. You can also microwave them in a microwave-safe bowl to soften them, then use the resulting liquid caramel as an ice cream or cake topping. Your wrapped caramels can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
