What are the first things that comes to mind when you think of the holidays?
Food? Turkey? Cranberries?
And when you think of Cranberries…
What do you think of
Cranberry Sauce, baking, dried cranberries…
Have you ever thought of eating the raw?
What do you think of now?
Sour?
What if you ate them with a caramel sauce?
Would you try them now?
YUM! ~ A little sour, A little sweet… but YUM!
Try it once before you shake your head… It is delicious.

You can also use store bought Caramel Dip but I like Homemade.

A coworker brought this to work one day and we all thought she was crazy…
Cranberries and caramel sauce?..
Taste it and you will be bringing it to your next gathering.
I think I need to go have some more….

Oh.my.word! I never ever would have thought of this, but I have to admit…I would try anything with salted caramel sauce. I am wild about the stuff. Thanks for sharing this interesting combo!
I wouldn’t have tried it either if it wasn’t brought in by a coworker… Now my favorite treat… Love the sour , sweet and salty taste of it.
