My dad is a huge fan of the caramel at Béquet Confections. He lives in Idaho and asks me to send him caramel on a regular basis. If you live in the Bozeman area, you can actually visit Béquet Confections and find products that aren't available in stores. If you prefer to buy in bulk, you can pick up a "slab" of your favorite type of caramel.
