Contest: Comment to Win 2 Jars of Fat Toad Farm Caramel
We are happy to announce this giveaway with our friends from Fat Toad Farm. We are always excited to feature specialy and gourmet food producers, especially from our home state of Vermont. Fat Toad Farm is giving away samples of their delicious Caramel sauce.
About Fat Toad Farm:
"We have found a use for caramel (cajeta) at just about every meal during every season. One of the best ways to enjoy our caramel (cajeta) is on fresh fruit throughout the summer. Drizzle it on strawberries in June and finish the harvest with our seasonal cinnamon caramel on freshly picked apples. Use caramel in or on dessert dishes — on top of apple pie, as a layer in chocolate cakes, drizzled on ice cream. Or for breakfast add to oatmeal, mix in with yogurt or stir into your hot drinks like coffee, tea or warm milk.
Fat Toad Farm is a small family-run goat dairy located in the hills of Central Vermont. Our goal is to work closely with the land and our animals in order to produce high quality, healthy food for our customers. We specialize in producing handcrafted artisanal goat cheese and goat milk caramel (Cajeta)."
