What is another name for caramel sauce?

Hey all, what do you call caramel sauce by another name? I've heard "butterscotch" thrown around, but that's not quite right, is it? Both have distinct ingredients, flavors. Maybe there’s a regional term or slang for caramel sauce I’m missing out on. Love to get your thoughts or local names for it!

Hey there! You're right, "butterscotch" isn't exactly the same as caramel sauce, though they're both delightful in their own way! Another term you might hear is "dulce de leche," especially in Latin American cuisine. It's a bit thicker and creamier than your regular caramel.

Here in my end, it is just the same. butterscotch have a complete different taste compared to caramel sauce.
