Did you know that April 5th is National Caramel Day?
Although its origins are unknown, they date back to ancient civilizations. Now, caramel is a timeless staple of the sweets industry.
Caramel is made by melting white sugar to a rich, decadent consistency, and depending on that consistency, the production process changes.
Caramel comes in many forms, from sauce to hard and soft caramels and even caramel filling, each with its own unique charm and flavor.
First, we have the classic caramels, including Werther's and our classic Vanilla Caramel Squares. Vanilla caramel creams are also very popular caramel candy, just like Cow Tales are.
If you want to celebrate something other than the classic way, you can always go with a caramel lollipop!
Currently, we have the caramel Tootsie Pops, which add the flavor of decadent caramel to a classic Tootsie Pop.
However, if you're looking for a pop that offers a cut to the rich caramel, look at Tootsie Pops Caramel Apple lollipops, which are typically a fall treat but taste good year-round.
The most popular types of caramel candies are all the different candy bars filled primarily with caramel.
One of the most decadent is the Cadbury Caramello bar, made of milk chocolate and smooth, sweet caramel. However, the most popular bars are Twix and Snickers, some of the most iconic candy bars ever.
So, on this National Caramel Day, we wish you a day filled with the joy of caramel sweets.
We're curious: how do you like to enjoy caramel? Is it in a bar, by itself, or some other way?
