Method:

Heat the sugar and water on medium-low heat in a heavy bottom pan for palmyra sugar syrup until completely melted. Mix with a spoon if required. Sugar will form clumps at the beginning and then melt completely. Keep swirling the pan and continue heating.

Once melting is over, the edges of the mixture will start to turn brown. Remove the pan from the stove, add butter, and then milk cream. The mixture will begin to bubble. Keep swirling until everything is combined. Keep the pan on low flame for the next 4-5 seconds and pour into another bowl. Allow it to cool down naturally.

For french toast, whisk milk, eggs, ground cinnamon, grated nutmeg, and palmyra sugar until everything is well combined and sugar gets dissolved. Dip a slice of bread in the mixture, allow both sides to be lightly soaked. Work one slice at a time.

Cook the remaining slices with the remaining butter. Work one slice at a time. Top with palmyra sugar syrup and serve hot.
