Recipe Notes

Nutritional Values Will Vary Depending on the Ingredients that you use!
The listed values are only estimates!
As mentioned, you will need sugar free caramels. You can find sugar free caramels online here, here or here for example. I also have a sugar free caramel sauce recipe here which could possibly used if you were to cut some of the liquid out to make it thick enough to use.
An option for these these turtle candies is to make them on top of a square pretzel. The pretzel will not only give a base for this candy, it will also give a nice salty-crunch taste. You can omit the pretzel idea if you are going keto or low carb.
