That recipe sounds more like it's for forming candy.

The most simple form of caramel is just Butter, sugar, and heavy cream for a sauce.
If you just want hard caramel to use for designs all you have to do is put a little white sugar in the pan, keep it from crystallizing with a brush and water, and wait until it starts to brown while layering more sugar on top of that as you go. It'll turn to a type of caramel where you can drizzle out to make designs that would stand up on a cake or something.
