caramelization is a group of chemical reactions

They're known as Maillard Reactions

The Maillard reaction is different from caramelization

Caramelization may sometimes cause browning in the same foods in which the Maillard reaction occurs, but the two processes are distinct. They are both promoted by heating, but the Maillard reaction involves amino acids, whereas caramelization is the pyrolysis of certain sugars.
