Although you can choose to unwrap a package of caramels, it is much easier to purchase a large block of caramel (Peter’s is a favorite brand), and cut off what you need. Not only is this easier, but the caramel is made with real cream and butter, so it is much better than the caramels in the packages you have to unwrap. The block lasts for a long time when stored in a cool place, and doesn’t get hard, so don’t worry about having it around for too long. Some stores also carry packages of unwrapped caramels, you’ll want to use them to save time if a block isn’t available.
