Gifford’s Caramels:
A Softer Chew
Since 1938, Gifford‘s has been pleasing the D.C. crowd with ice cream and candy. The caramels are much softer chews and a real find for people who have steered clear of caramels for fear of fillings, braces and such. In Caramel Apple, Chocolate, Coffee Toffee, Vanilla and Vanilla Nut (with pecan pieces), the Vanilla and Chocolate are available in the summer; the other flavors return in the fall. Coffee Toffee has the best coffee flavor of the coffee caramels we tried.

Mrs. Call’s Caramels:
Classic Perfection
Perhaps the most classic of the caramels, these cream caramels from Utah have all the old-fashioned flavor and chewiness one could ask for. All four flavors we had were outstanding—Vanilla Cream, Licorice, Mocha (very chocolaty) and Pecan (Vanilla Cream with chopped pecans). The Vanilla Cream are perhaps our favorite vanilla caramels; and the Licorice must not be overlooked. The company also makes yummy pretzel rods, dipped in caramel and coated with white chocolate.
