Caramel Cages

This amount of caramel can make about 25 cages if you are experienced and don’t break too many. It is virtually impossible not to break any, so do not be discouraged if your first attempts are unsuccessful. With a little practice, you will find it is not difficult to make thin, elegant cages. If you are making a large quantity of cages (for a beginner, that can simply mean more than one), you may want to start with the Simplified Caramel Cages that follow.
