Caramel and sea salt has been a popular combination for gourmands for several years now, and its familiarity is growing, indicating that it’s more than a passing trend. Fleur de Sel Caramels are sweet- and- salty bonbons that can be served at any time of the year. Not as dainty as the chocolate truffles, they can blend in easily at a more casual affair. Fleur de sel is fairly easy to find at specialty food stores nowadays, and also is not uncommon at many grocery stores. It and other flaky sea salts have a less salty taste than processed salts, so their delicate quality won’t overwhelm the caramel and chocolate here.
