The Original Caramel

Our velvety goat's milk caramel sauces (Cajeta) combine creamy caramel richness with the subtle tang of goat's milk to create an utterly unique, not-too-sweet dessert sauce perfectly paired with ice cream, fruit, and cheeses. Fat Toad Farm Caramel Sauces have a 18 month shelf life and should be refrigerated after opening.

The slow cooking process of the milk and sugar in our copper kettles creates slightly roasted and nutty notes, adding warmth and depth to the caramel. Our Original caramel is delicious paired with artisan cheeses, fresh fruit, coffee, and brownies. It also makes the perfect addition to cheese plates & charcuterie boards.

How We Make Our Caramel

It All Starts With The Goats

Every jar of caramel begins with fresh goat’s milk from select small dairies in Vermont. Goats are known for producing milk that is naturally rich, slightly tangy, and perfect for transforming into something sweet. And we work with dairies that produce the sweet, mild milk that makes the very best caramel.

Crafted With Time and Care

We bring the milk into our kitchen where we combine it with pure cane sugar and other simple ingredients like vanilla beans or bourbon. We keep our recipes minimal because the true star is the milk itself. By focusing on a handful of wholesome ingredients, the flavors remain clean and authentic.

We coax the milk over a low flame, stirring with patience (and maybe a touch of obsession). Hours go by as the kitchen fills with the scent of toasted sugar and warm cream. Slowly, slowy - simple milk and sugar is transformed into something luscious, golden, and irresistible.

As bubbles rise and the color deepens, we know we’re getting close. Stir, skim, stir - no shortcuts allowed. Our caramel thickens into that dreamy, spoon-coating consistency that is hard to resist. It’s glossy, rich, and smooth - like velvet melted into sugar. This is when the real swooning starts.

Jarred One at a Time

When the caramel has reached perfection, it is poured into jars, sealed, and labeled with care. Each batch reflects the time and attention that went into its making, from the goats who provided the milk to the people who guided it through the process.

By the time it reaches your spoon, every jar carries the story of Vermont craftsmanship and a commitment to quality. One taste, and you’ll understand why we never rush the process.
