KELLOGG, Minn., Nov. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Annie B's, a small, family-owned caramel company's wooden box of caramels has been chosen as one of Oprah's "Favorite Things" for 2014. The rustic gift box is filled with 35 caramels and is available with original, sea salt caramel or assorted which includes original, sea salt caramel and buttered rum.
"It is so thrilling to be part of Oprah's elite 'Favorite Things' gift list and we're excited for the adventure ahead, even if it's a little overwhelming. We truly value our employees and wouldn't be here without their hard work and dedication. It is incredible that our little 18-person operation is getting so much national attention," said Justin and Amanda Henke, Owners of Annie B's.
The 36-year-old company has 18 employees that work in their factory in Kellogg, Minnesota (population 445).
The company prides itself on using all-natural, gluten-free ingredients free of high fructose corn syrup. Each caramel is made using local products when possible with milk, butter, sugar, condensed milk and natural flavoring. Each gluten-free caramel is slow cooked in copper pots through small-batch cooking. The only process that isn't completed by hand is the cutting and wrapping of each caramel. With continued growth Amanda and Justin plan on keeping the cozy, family-owned culture and high quality, all-natural ingredients.
Annie B's caramels make a great holiday gift or a fun local treat to share with friends, family or co-workers. For more information about the company or for fun recipe ideas, visit www.anniebs.com
