Hey Friends,
Growing up, "good caramel" was just "more caramel."
These days, I still love caramel (I mean, why else would I buy a whole caramel company?). But what I want out of my caramel has changed.
I want caramel that tastes like caramel, not just sweet. I want the richness that comes from slowly cooking fresh goat's milk in copper kettles. I want the slightly roasted, almost nutty notes that develop over hours, the buttery finish, and just enough sweetness to let all of those flavors shine.
Does that mean I'm a grown-up now? 🤷♀️
I also use caramel differently.
A spoonful stirred into an iced coffee disappears into something creamy and complex. A drizzle over a bowl of vanilla ice cream turns a simple dessert into one worth lingering over. Cold peaches, strawberries, or slices of apple don't need much to become something satisfying on a hot July afternoon.
And then there are the flavors.
Salted Bourbon adds a little warmth and depth. The salt keeps every bite balanced, while the bourbon brings notes of oak and caramelized sugar that seem made for ice cream or an evening affogato.
Vanilla Bean isn't just vanilla flavored. Real vanilla beans weave their way through every jar, adding floral, almost custardy notes that make fresh berries, iced coffee, or even a simple bowl of yogurt feel special.
Of course, there's always Original, where the simply complex flavor of slow-cooked goat's milk gets to be the star.
The best summer desserts don't need much. Good fruit. Good ice cream. A cold drink. And a caramel that brings more than sweetness to the table.
