Vegan Caramel Sauce Recipe

Regular caramel sauce or toffee sauce is very dairy heavy, and is composed of butter, sugar and double cream. This caramel sauce however is dairy free and vegan but still has all the taste. It is important to use a neutral tasting dairy free margarine, I like to use Pure brand, made with soya which has a mild buttery taste that works very well with this recipe. The soya cream is a single cream replacement which has considerably less fat than double cream. In order to compensate for this and make the sauce the same consistency as regular caramel sauce arrowroot powder is used to thicken the sauce without altering the flavour or texture.
