## Equipment

- wooden spoon
- red-handled rubber spatulas
- glass container

## Tips

- Caramelizing sugar gets very very hot, so make sure to use a wooden spoon, a bamboo spoon or a red-handled rubber spatula, which is designed for high temperatures.
- When working with sugar, scrape inside the corners of your pot because it likes to sit there and maybe overcaramelize or burn.
