We've been making this precious thyme, preserved lemon + sea salt caramel babe since 2011! No one ever gets tired of it.
Here's its original description from lo so many years ago when we were young and the world was so fresh:
Our Rosemary Sea Salt Caramels are our best-selling product, so when I started thinking about the May 2011 chocolate of the month, I had a selfish goal: to give our customers another sea salt caramel on those days when we can't keep up with the demand for the beloved RSSCs. I tinkered around with gorgeous lemon-infused sea salt crystals, and pulled out some homemade salt-preserved lemons I'd made a few weeks before with organic Meyer lemons—time and sea salt had softened the lemon peel to a delicious melty consistency that matched the caramel perfectly. For the final touch, I went to the garden outside and looked around: thyme was already popping up, so I added that to the mix too. The resulting caramel is a panoply of unfolding flavors on the tongue—fresh lemon at the beginning, then a nice burst of herb flavor from the thyme, and a long finish of that amazing combination of sea salt and ultra-creamy caramel.
In 2024 we switched from making this as an enrobed square caramel to a molded round one -- it's prettier and the caramel is a bit softer than it's been, slightly more gushy and less chewy. It's a bit more lemon-forward, also. We like it more, let us know what you think! If you want the old-school LL texture, RSSC are your bestie.
