Jason McCrea, Created Something Truly Special.
Drawing on his background in chemistry and passion for natural ingredients, he’s driven by a single goal: to make the best caramel in the world. His quirky, curious nature is grounded in integrity, honesty, and an unwavering commitment to quality—values that shine through in every piece of McCrea’s caramel, his true life’s work.
Recognizing that great things are never made alone, Jason built a team of talented individuals who share his dedication to craftsmanship and authenticity. On any given day, anyone on the team might take the lead, but all are united by the same purpose: creating exceptional caramel guided by honesty, integrity, and excellence.
This Is Where the Sweet Happens
We started with just a wooden spoon, spare pots and pans, and a candy thermometer—and though we’ve since evolved to a sophisticated operation, we’re committed to preserving the spirit and passion that got us here in the first place. Our kitchens are buzzing with energy, creativity, and music. Unforgettable scents are the status quo—melting sugar mingling with fresh cream, rosemary right off the sprig, freshly juiced ginger, Highland Scotch straight from the bottle…an unending ambrosia we seek to capture in every box of McCrea’s.
The Art and Science of Caramel
We’re uncompromising about quality—our ingredients arrive fresh each day from sources that meet our rigorous standards. Starting with the best butter, sugar, and milk lays the perfect foundation for our legendary recipes. Caramel making is both science and art, a delicate balance of ingredients and heat mastered through patience and precision. Watching the process is mesmerizing: bubbling liquid, rich aromas, and molten sugar bursting from copper kettles at just the right moment. That’s the secret to flavor that can’t be rushed—and to the irresistible experience that has caramel lovers everywhere saying, “More McCrea’s, please!”
