Try this delicious condiment on a bagel with cream cheese, with greek yogurt for breakfast, with vanilla ice cream, the options are endless!

This was such an easy recipe to make and I was pleasantly surprised by the incredible bursts of caramel and molasses. I can imagine this with would go beautifully pairing with vanilla flavours like Maleny Food Co Vanilla Ice cream and vanilla scones with cream. Yum!
