We believe in hard work, the strength of families, and ice cream sundaes at the end of a hot summer day. Natural ingredients are a must, and quality will always prevail over quantity. Our handcrafted, small-batch caramel sauce is made in New York's Hudson Valley with just five all-natural ingredients. So treat yourself with something that's worth it, something honest and undeniably good. Celebrate the everyday wins with Cara-Sel.

What’s all the fuss about Cara-Sel?

When people ask what makes Cara-Sel™ Salted Caramel Sauce special, I tell them it’s all about balance and a touch of risk. I caramelize the sugar past the usual mark—pushing it to a perfect, deep copper shade, right to the edge of “almost burnt” but never bitter. When I blend in the rich dairy, the result is a sauce that’s complex and deeply toasty, with layers of flavor you won’t find in anything made from artificial “flavorings.”

It’s caramel done purely, without preservatives or fillers. Just five real ingredients: sugar, cream, butter, sea salt, and vanilla. Simple and meticulously crafted, Cara-Sel stands out as more than just caramel—it’s a rich, satisfying experience, whether you’re spooning it over dessert or savoring it straight from the jar.

 How do you use Cara-Sel? 

When people ask me this question, I often think, How can’t you use it! As an avid cook and baker, I add it to so many dishes and not just desserts! 

• Swirl it into your oatmeal for a fabulous breakfast. 

• Warm to blend with cream; then chill & whip to make caramel whipped cream. 

• Use it instead of melted marshmallow in my play on Rice Krispie treats. 

• Swap it for sugar, honey, or maple syrup in savory recipes that call for a little bit of sugar, like some soups and dressings. 

• Stir it into your coffee or hot chocolate. 

• Eat it straight off the spoon, of course!
