Our 3.6 oz Resealable Pouch comes in Celtic Sea Salt, Classic, Salt-Chocolate and our "Best Sellers Mix" that includes Celtic Sea Salt, Classic, Salt-Chocolate, Butterscotch, Green Apple, Salted Mocha and Salted Butterscotch. Each pouch contains nine (9) individually wrapped pieces.
Our goal is to make the very best caramel possible, using the purest, finest ingredients available. We have never added preservatives, artificial colors or artificial flavors to our caramel. When some of our customers expressed concerns regarding corn syrup we tested other syrups and found tapioca syrup made an even yummier caramel, we transitioned immediately.

SHELF LIFE
Our caramel candy is exquisite for the first month and a half, and still very good for the next several months. Fresher caramel is better. Caramel past the best if used by date might not taste as fresh or be as silky smooth. To extend freshness, refrigerate or freeze our caramel in tightly closed bag.
Corn: In 2012, we switched from Corn Syrup to Tapioca Syrup. The fructose currently used in our product is derived from corn. We have been working diligently for numerous years at trying to replace this fructose. Despite experiments with replacement sugars, we have been unable to reproduce our smooth, creamy texture. We are continuing to actively work on this. Corn Fructose represents less than 5% of our caramel.
