Butterscotch can refer to the natural flavor produced from the heating of dark sugar and its mixing with butterfat,[1] or pale imitations thereof. Both natural caramel and butterscotch come from the caramelization reaction, but the tastes, while similar, are distinct. It is worth noting that caramelization is, chemically, one of the paths of the Maillard reaction, but there is substantial difference between the path that produces the intense flavors of butterscotch and of caramelized onions.
