Goats can be quite happy eating a lot of different things. But what they eat affects the flavor of their milk. And the best milk for our caramel is mild and sweet.

We have three pretty spectacular new microbatch hot sauce for you to try. We had just a blissful tasting session and those bottles sure as heck made it home with me.

Every single recipe we make has to be reviewed by a Scheduled Process Authority and submitted to the FDA. We have critical control points of temperature and pH. We save partial bottles from every batch for a few days after production for the 2 pH tests that we have to take from every batch.

We are fortunate to have so many amazing goat dairies in Vermont that we are able to choose the just right milk to make our caramel its very best!

Most companies start selling at trade shows when they are first trying to get their name out in the world. But BBVT is 21 years old and it finally seemed like a natural progression after getting our first street sign at 20 years old.

We start each caramel week with a trip to one of the two Vermont farms that we source our milk from. We pump mild, sweet goat's milk from their milk tanks into our transport tote and then bring it back to the milk tanks in our caramel room.

The other day, my oldest daughter came home from school and told me that it was cool that her friends saw me on the news. I clearly have reached the pinnacle of small-fish-small-pond fame when my own child thinks that I'm cool. I couldn't be more proud.
