The origin of Caramels d\u2019Isigny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The production of caramels began in Isigny-sur-Mer in the 1930s but, during the 1990s, the long-standing manufacturer \u201cDupont d\u2019Isigny\u201d moved to the Manche region, taking with it one of the jewels of the Isigny terroir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Keen to make up for this departure, the Isigny-sur-Mer town council and the Isigny Sainte-M\u00e8re Dairy Cooperative called upon a former purchasing and logistics manager, and caramel expert, to create the company \u201cNormandie Caramels\u201d in April 1994. The artisanal production of caramel in Isigny-sur-Mer was thus relaunched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time, through the production of premium caramels, the Cooperative saw a new opportunity to promote the high-quality image of Isigny\u2019s milk and therefore welcomed the company into its premises, until a new production site was constructed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the beginning, the company employed 5 people and 50 kg of caramel was produced every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, the Cooperative purchased Caramels d\u2019Isigny to ensure its longevity and to develop the small company with its complementary know-how and values shared by the Cooperative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two long-term partners, both firmly attached to their terroir and traditions, became united.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Caramel is a timeless confectionery. Its manufacture requires special attention and significant know-how, as well as very high quality ingredients to achieve the expected sweetness and flavours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caramels d\u2019Isigny, which are local products of the terroir par excellence, are made with high-quality local raw materials: whole milk, Isigny PDO Butter and Isigny PDO Cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The caramel\u2019s unique flavour is a direct result of these premium ingredients. The proportions of milk, cream and butter as well as the cooking temperatures are what give them their texture and distinctive nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Caramels d\u2019Isigny recipe showcases quality ingredients and contains no gluten, gelatine, palm oil or artificial flavouring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The caramels are made using artisanal methods. The production team is now made up of 10 employees who apply all their exceptional know-how to create these valued products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
