For best results, use very ripe persimmons. The pulp should be soft and almost jelly-like. If you don't have fresh persimmons, you may be able to find frozen persimmon pulp at specialty stores or online. To make your own caramel sauce, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar melts and turns a deep amber color. Carefully whisk in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of butter. Cook for another minute, then remove from heat and let cool slightly. Feel free to add a sprinkle of nutmeg or cloves to the batter for extra warmth.
