In a small pot, gently heat the cream, butter, and salt until the butter has melted and the salt has completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and add the vanilla.
In a larger pot, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water.
Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the pot occasionally to distribute the heat evenly.
Continue to boil the sugar mixture until the bubbles begin to get smaller and it becomes amber-colored.
Reduce the heat to low, and pour in the warm cream mixture, whisking constantly to avoid lumps or crystals.
Immediately transfer the hot mixture to a heat-safe vessel and cool completely.
