It's probably not warm caramel that they use, but some other type of candy that hardens when exposed to air/cold/some other environmental stimulus.

I do it with sugar at the "hard crack" stage I assumed they do the same but know you have me wondering. did some googling http://kaleidoscope.cultural-china.com/en/8Kaleidoscope7248.... looks like it is brown and or white sugar. so you are right not caramel but melted sugar.

but the western folks have other types of candy which after rereading I guess is what you meant.
