The wonderful texture of this treat makes for a great snack, but also a very useful tool in the kitchen. French bakers have been incorporating Carambars into their recipes for years, as a few seconds in the microwave make them a wonderful addition to your dessert. A Carambar caramel offers a smooth and sweet flavor, suitable for every type of sweet tooth.

Developed in France in the 1950s, the Carambar treat was a result of circumstances, and never a product that was intended to be created. Instead, an excess of material led a confectioner, Mr. Fauchille, of the Delespaul-Hazard company and his associate Mr. Gallois to attempt to make a new recipe. Subsequently, a machine malfunction resulted in the distinct shape of the Carambar you have come to know and recognize today.

This treat is ingrained in modern French culture and has been for quite some time. Since the 1960’s the distinctive red and yellow wrapper have held not just the delightful treat, but also a youthful joke. Generally, these jokes are regarded as somewhat unimaginative, childish and generally inferior to modern humor. So much so that The French coined the phrase “blague Carambar” – Carambar Joke to describe that type of joke making.

Manufactured and distributed by French confectioner La Pie Qui Chante, you can be sure that the Carambar treats you purchase today are of the highest quality, as they have been since their inception. Take your tastebuds on a trip to Europe with Carambar and enjoy the flavor of delicious French Candy you’ve been missing.
