Place bread cubes in a greased 13- by- 9-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, butter, vanilla and cinnamon. Pour evenly over bread.
Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan bring the sugar, water and lemon juice to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook until sugar is dissolved and mixture turns a golden amber color. Stir in the butter until melted; add cream. Remove from heat and serve with bread pudding. Yield: 12 servings.
