These Mini Caramel Pies were supposed to be one standard size Pie. But unfortunately the lady from our local baking supply store, had some bad news for us regarding the larger baked Pie Shells.

I get all my mini pie shells as well as some other goodies from them, as they use private bakers who make these at home – always fresh and always nicely packaged.

Unfortunately and very sadly, the lady who baked the larger Pie Shells has passed away recently and I so loved her baking. One could see she made it with love, as the price was on the low side, therefore I take it she did not bake to become rich, but purely for the love of baking.

Anyhow, I had my mind set on Caramel Pie, and if it had to be in mini size, well, sometimes that is even better !

I use this recipe for the Caramel filling in so many ways, from truffles to whirling it through Vanilla Ice-Cream to Pies.

The Caramel filling tastes almost just the same as what we have in SA, the Nestle Caramel Treat. Which in some countries are unavailable and you have to actually cook/boil/slow-cook a can of Sweetened Condensed Milk for hours to get just about the same taste and texture as my version of a quick Caramel filling.

You can also use the cooked Caramel as a topping or a sweet layer in desserts without baking. After cooking, the Caramel is already quite thick and baking only sets it a little more with a tiny bit of added chewiness, which I like in a Pie.
