Salty Butter Caramel Sauce from La Maison D'Armorine - NEW!
From our favorite French caramel makers, La Maison D'Armorine. The richness of the sauce is perfectly balanced with a touch of sea salt from Gu�rande. Great on just about anything from ice cream to French toast, imagine nibbling on slices of apple dipped in some warmed sauce. Or, for an easy dessert, spread a little on a shortbread cookie then top with another cookie for an instant salted caramel sandwich.
Mariage Fr�res Wedding Imperial
A beautiful afternoon tea that is "steeped in the passion that weds the malty golden power of Assam tea leaves to the sweetness of notes of chocolate and caramel". Since 1854, Mariage Fr�res has been sourcing and blending the worlds' finest teas. And their history goes back even further, to the 1600s in fact, when their ancestors began sailing to distant lands in search of new and exotic flavors. Fill the room with the aroma of caramel and chocolate -and serve this tea with dessert at a dinner party.
Caramelicious Gift BasketHow can melted sugar be so good? Caramel is rivaling chocolate lately for the "it" flavor - and you'll see why when this basket is opened to reveal its sweet contents: crunchy caramel corn with pistachios from CC Made; salted caramel chocolates from Bay Area chocolatier, Barlovento; and even caramels made from the milk of happy goats. These caramel-centric treats come in a canvas lined wire basket with a matching lid, then tied with our signature bow.
Dulce de Leche from La SalamandraNo one's sure who started it, the Argentinians or the French, but the idea was brilliant nonetheless. Take the day's fresh whole milk and cook it with a little sugar until it's burnished, sweet and sticky. What separates this from caramel is the depth of flavor you get from the slow cooking of the milk...the flavor is far more complex and sophisticated than your average caramel sauce. Since it contains far more milk than sugar, it's not overwhelmingly sweet. Try the Chocolate version, too!
Salted Caramel Sables from Biscuiterie Mere Poulard
Could the classic French butter cookie be improved upon? We say yes when there's caramel involved! These Salted Caramel Sables are as insanely delicious and over the top as they sound. The famous gooey caramel of the region gives a nice chew to the cookie, while the salt provides balance and enhances the sweetness. The hefty tins are emblazoned with a painting of the iconic Mont Saint-Michel, so you'll know exactly where to go to get more!
