Small Batch Traditional Goat's Milk Caramel
Every jar of Fat Toad Farm Traditional Caramel is made by hand in small batches using a slow, traditional cooking process that creates rich, velvety flavor.
We partner with small Vermont farms that are chosen specifically for the mild, sweet goat’s milk they produce - the perfect foundation for our smooth and creamy caramel.
Whether poured over ice cream, paired with ripe fruit or fine cheese, or stirred into a morning latte, our caramel transforms everyday moments into something indulgent and unforgettable.
A Sweet Beginning - The Fat Toad Farm Story
Fat Toad Farm began in 2007 as a homesteading experiment with a single French Alpine doe named Jupiter. What started as a backyard project quickly grew into a beloved Vermont brand known for its rich, hand-stirred goat’s milk caramel sauces. Each batch is made using just a few fresh, all-natural ingredients and a traditional slow-cooking method that brings out deep, caramelized flavor.
Made with Milk from Vermont Farms
As the business grew, Fat Toad Farm transitioned from milking their own herd to working closely with local partners Ayers Brook Dairy and Joneslan Farm. These farms produce the mild, sweet goat’s milk that gives the caramel its smooth texture and signature flavor. It's a collaboration rooted in Vermont’s strong agricultural community and shared commitment to quality.
Continuing the Tradition
In 2022, Fat Toad Farm Caramel found its new home at Butterfly Bakery of Vermont in Barre. BBVT proudly continues the tradition of crafting caramel by hand in small batches, using the same time-honored techniques and simple ingredients. As part of BBVT’s award-winning farm-to-fork product line, Fat Toad Farm Caramel remains as rich, creamy, and true to its roots as ever.
Simple Ingredients, Endless Possibilities
Fat Toad Farm Caramel is a kitchen staple with countless uses. Drizzle it over ice cream, swirl it into coffee, pair it with fruit or especially cheese, or use it to elevate your favorite desserts. Or follow our lead, skip the extras and enjoy it right off the spoon.
