For best results, use a heavy-bottomed pot to prevent the popcorn from burning.
Be careful when adding the baking soda to the hot caramel – it will foam up quickly.
Make sure to stir the caramel corn frequently during baking to prevent it from sticking together and burning.
Store the cooled caramel corn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
