I don’t even remember where I first tried miso caramel, but I do know that it was a total revelation. You know how a little sea salt makes caramel that much better? Miso is kind of the natural improvement upon that, adding saltiness and umami.

Sugarpine Drive-In's Miso Caramel Sauce starts with rich, buttery caramel and adds chickpea miso for lovely complexity. (Chickpea miso is a nod to the restaurant's Hawaiian and Pacific Northwest influences.) The miso helps avoid the cloyingness of traditional caramel and gives the sauce a deeper, toastier flavor.

What Does Sugarpine Miso Caramel Taste Like?

The caramel is buttery and rich, just like you expect from a good caramel sauce. But then the miso adds balance with a savory, salty note. Caramel is definitely the central flavor here, but miso enhances it.

How to Use Miso Caramel

Warm it and drizzle it over:

• Ice cream
• Any apple or pear dessert
• Brownies
• Cheesecake
• Waffles

We also love it for making miso caramel lattes. Once hot chocolate season rolls around, we’ll be trying it that way too!

Why It’s a Relish Fave

At Relish, we love items that put new spins on traditional favorites, and this is the perfect example. You will want to drizzle this on EVERYTHING, friends.
