I did it today!! And turned out delicious. My husband loved it. The only problem was that at the beginning. Instead of caramel the sugar become like sand and hard. I added few spoons of water and problem solved. I didn't put cinammon and still was delicious. Thank you!! I will definetly do it again

Hi Ella, I am watching this video from 2013, the oldest and one of the first few of the videos, that you had put up. Video editing in 2019 is way advanced and amazing, your recipes are more detailed and precise now in terms of the quantity in grams.

Thankfully, what has not changed is the way you breakdown complex recipies into simpler steps and how all of us end up making delicious food. Thanks so much for being there.

Don't remember the last time I checked any other channel to make something delicious, exciting and new.
