About ORIGINAL SOFT & CHEWY CARAMELS, ORIGINAL
L. Frances Caramel Company Original Soft and Chewy Caramels are handcrafted-style confections made from corn syrup, heavy cream, evaporated milk, sugar, brown sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil from palm kernel and soybean, butter, salt, water, soy lecithin, artificial flavor, and TBHQ as a preservative. The combination of heavy cream, evaporated milk, and butter gives these caramels a rich dairy character. Brown sugar adds a molasses note that distinguishes the flavor from purely white-sugar caramels. Hydrogenated vegetable oil contributes to the soft, chewy texture without the caramel becoming overly sticky. A 13-gram serving provides 462 calories, 69.2 grams of carbohydrates, 19.2 grams of fat, and no protein. The per-gram calorie density is high, as expected for a butter-and-sugar confection. Soy lecithin acts as an emulsifier to maintain a smooth, homogeneous texture throughout the candy.
