Caramel coloring is made by cooking sugar to 392°F, which causes it to turn completely black. Once cooled, small amounts can be used to color baked goods. The sugar burns easily and produces smoke, so it requires careful cooking to the precise temperature. Once cooled, the caramel coloring can be stored at room temperature indefinitely.

When I learned my trade in Europe, this was known as blackjack. It is basically
just burned sugar, which, when cooked to 392F (200C), turns completely black. Once the mixture has cooled, a small amount is used to color baked goods, mainly breads. Caramel coloring will last indefinitely and does not need to be refrigerated. I find many students do not cook the sugar long enough, especially when they make caramel coloring for the first time. There is probably some guilt involved in burning something intentionally, and no doubt they assume something must have gone wrong when they smell it, as sugar, when cooked to this extreme temperature, produces an aroma that should bring any executive chef worth his or her title into the kitchen in a hurry! 2 pounds (910 g) granulated sugar 12 cup (120 ml) water 4 drops of lemon juice 1 12 cups (360 ml) water 1. Combine the sugar, the first measurement of water, and the lemon juice in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat without stirring until the sugar begins to caramelize, brushing down the sides of the pan with water from time to time. Continue to cook, stirring frequently so that the sugar colors evenly, to 392F (200C)blackjack stage. The sugar will be burned, and there will be smoke coming from the pan. Remove the pan from the heat, stand back, and very carefully pour in the second measurement of water. Stir until the mixture is smooth. 2. Let cool. Pour into a jar and store, covered, at room temperature.
