Since we began making chocolate in 2010, we have sought to showcase the flavor nuances of diverse cocoa origins — carefully roasting single-origin beans to enhance unique tasting notes. For our Single-Origin Caramel Collection, our confectioners apply that approach to five distinctive, globally sourced sugars, as cooked into buttery Caramels. 

Head Chocolatier Nicholas and our Confections team use classic technique, exceptional ingredients (including local Straus organic cream and butter), and one base recipe, to craft five silky-smooth Caramel varieties, each spotlighting the aromas of an individual sugar. Every Caramel is encased in our mellow Tumaco, Colombia chocolate.

The Five Sugars & Their Tasting Notes

These sugars are derived from just two plants — sugarcane, and coconut-palm trees. The wide range of flavors is a testament to centuries-old refinement methods.
