Okay, ladies and gents... This is the most delectable frosting I have ever made. In honor of the wonderful Joseph Blake turning the ripe ol' age of 53, I made a black velvet cake, and loaded it with salted caramel icing. Delectable, and slam-you-upside-the-head sweet, I didn't ice the whole cake. Instead I filled the layers and iced the top.
Just a word of warning: watch the pot like crazy-cakes while your boiling the sugar. The sugar went from crystal clear, to dark amber in the blink of an eye. Being me, I was busy doing ten other things in the kitchen, and I had several terrifying moments in which I feared I had burnt the yummy sugar concoction. Fortunately, it seems hard to ruin sugar, and everything turned out with elegant, sticky goodness.
