Ingredient substitutions
- Dairy-free version: Replace dairy milk with almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, or oat milk, along with dairy-free caramel sauce and dairy-free whipped topping. Create a creamy and indulgent caramel brulee latte suitable for those with lactose intolerance or a preference for non-dairy options.
- Caramel hard candy substitution: Instead of crushed hard candy, cut stroopwafel in small bits and sprinkle on top of the whipped cream. This will give you a softer, less crunchy, topping
- Brown sugar: You can substitute the brown sugar with regular sugar.
