    Southern Caramel – A tradition in creating the best caramel you have ever tasted

    Life is too short for bad caramels. When it comes to sweets, we need to eat something good, good for your kids, as well as for yourself. I am picky to any candies, chocolates and desserts. But if it’s good, I will enjoy it without hesitates. Health is important, while being happy somehow is more important.

    At Southern Caramel they make one thing and they make it well. Southern Caramel believes that the art of making handmade caramel is more than the mastery of blending ingredients together. In its simplest form, caramel is only three ingredients. But not all caramel is created equal.
    Southern Caramel has honed their recipe over time through a process that was admittedly a little tricky to perfect. Years were spent in the kitchen making recipe tweaks and adjustments until they arrived at what they felt was the BEST caramel on the market. Southern Caramel knows what caramel should look like, what caramel should smell like, and they know that caramel cooks a little differently in August than it does in January. Southern caramel is made without the aid of preservatives and still maintains a shelf life of four months unrefrigerated (up to a year when refrigerated).
    Southern caramels are made from scratch and by hand using pure ingredients, just like grandma used to make and with a whole lotta love. Each box is then packaged for each individual order. The fact that Southern caramels are made in small batches allows them to maintain a level of quality throughout their production process that results in exceptional taste and product consistency.
    Nothing compares to the taste of true caramel. So what makes Southern Caramel different from the other caramel manufacturers? The main thing that sets them apart from the rest of the pack is the flavor and the manner in which the caramel dissolves in your mouth without sticking to your teeth. Southern Caramel starts the process with pure cane sugar and then they caramelize it. This may seem like an obvious step, but many caramel manufacturers do not take the time to truly caramelize their sugar. The unfortunate result is a sugary, sweet, brown filling that lacks the depth of flavor that characterizes true caramel. Southern caramels do not contain any artificial flavors, artificial colors or preservatives and are naturally gluten-free. Southern Caramel feels pretty strongly about this, but they think your caramel should taste like… well, caramel.

    Lime Salted Caramel

    Perfect for summertime, Southern Caramel original recipe caramel is sprinkled with house made lime salt. Just a hint of lime, this one reminds us of key lime pie with a caramel drizzle.

    Bourbon Caramel

    As with all the flavors, a recipe is only as good as the ingredients used to make it. That is why Southern Caramel uses top-shelf bourbon the Bourbon Caramels. There is nothing subtle about these Bourbon Caramel so if you enjoy a nice glass of bourbon, this caramel is perfect for you.

    Sampler Box

    Can’t decide on which taste-tempting caramel delight to choose? This Sampler Box contains four quarter-pound boxes of your favorite flavors! Excellent choice for weddings, showers, corporate gifts, closing gifts… always makes a wonderful heartfelt Thank You gift for friends, family and coworkers. Note: Only one premium flavor per Sampler Box, please.

Their graffiti style, with its freedom of expression and easy-going honesty, was born out of the 90’s when bricks and mortar were the canvas du jour. At the start of the new millenium, when the walls were being washed and the support beams deconstructed on the street art movement, the Fresh Hoods team came together to stage a revival through a new medium and give a voice of self-expression back to the masses.

    Today, Fresh Hoods work together to provide a new canvas for this movement that rejects bulk batches. They demand responsibility and sustainability in a world that wrongly says waste is okay. At Fresh Hoods, there is No Waste, Made to Order mindset makes the ideal real. You order it, Fresh Hoods make it! At Fresh Hoods, art is responsible, so everybody wins.

    At Fresh Hoods they offer next level designs for streetwear that go beyond just comfort. They have taken the ordinary and turned it into an opportunity for honesty and reality-checks. There’s a Fresh Hoods hoodie to fit every mood and every occasion.

    STREET GRAFFITI TO WEARABLE ART

    Over the past decade, graffiti and street art have undergone a decline. To Fresh Hoods, this is unfortunate because, as a medium for self-expression, street art is an important outlet, but graffiti and street art are also illegal and they’re a form of vandalism! So Fresh Hoods have created a new medium of Wearable Art as an alternative for self-expression that’s open to everyone.

    WEAR IT OUT LOUD!

    In the tradition of the great Street Artists, say what you need to say and broadcast it out loud. Take it to the streets, take it to work, or wear it at home. Instead of painting the wall, wear your vision!

    Beach Lovers Attention! You Should Have U-Stand For Your Next Beach Trip

    Fill your U-Stand with weight (sand, water, ice and drinks), insert any umbrella, and enjoy stress free shade. Tired of sandy drinks? The U-Stand features a two-piece table top with 4 full size upholders! Also tired of digging holes for your umbrella, only for it to go flying down the beach with one gust of wind? Don’t worry, U-Stand got you covered.

    This multi-purpose, portable umbrella stand was originally made for the beach but let’s be honest, the possibilities are endless with the U–Stand! It comes fully equipped with a storage base for all your beach or pool gear and an umbrella stand to help you soak up the sun without getting burnt!

    U-Stand “Shade Anywhere” is a “patent pending”, portable bucket with a tube that runs through its center and opens up at the top. It is engineered to be highly portable, incredibly lightweight, and rugged enough to withstand the abuse of everyday use.

    The empty U-Stand can be easily taken to the beach, filled up with sand, and set up with a beach umbrella. Imagine a bucket full of beach sand incessantly preventing your umbrella from taking off. That’s U-Stand for you. Filling it up with sand sounds too much of work? Fill it up with water. You can even bring ice in it from home.


    The intelligently designed bucket stand offers a flat tabletop with cupholders on top of it for convenience. It’s the ultimate beach accessory.

    How It Works:

    STEP 1 – Fill up the U-Stand with beach gear, attach the lids.

    STEP 2 – Carry the U-Stand with shoulder strap to your destination.

    STEP 3 – Empty your beach gear.

    STEP 4 – Fill the U-Stand with something heavy, Sand (90lbs), Water (60lbs), Ice & Drinks (50lbs).
    Warning: The U-Stand is designed to support your beach umbrella. The U-Stand must be filled with weight. DO NOT PUT UMBRELLA IN WITHOUT WEIGHT! 

    STEP 5 – Attach lids to the top

    STEP 6 – Insert beach umbrella pole through center tube and push into sand at least 6 inches.

    STEP 7 – Tighten set screw to secure the U-Stand to the beach umbrella pole.

    STEP 8 – Open beach umbrella. SIT BACK AND RELAX -ENJOY THE SHADE 

     

    Where can you use the U-Stand?

    • Use it at the beach
    • Backyard
    • Outdoor Concert
    • Sporting Events
    • Lake

    When used correctly the U-Stand has been proven an effective way to reduce fly-away umbrellas. Use caution when winds are gusting and close your umbrella when the conditions are too strong. IMPORTANT: Always fill your U-Stand completely with heavy weight (Sand, Water, Rocks) when winds are strong.

    If you are doing holiday shopping lately. You should totally add U-Stand into your shopping list. As social distancing is still required, going to beach is the activity we always do in South California. Enjoy the beach time and feeling the warm sunshine. U-Stand solves a lot of “beach problems” in an easy way. If you are having a tropical Christmas this year, this is also a cool tool you should carry with you.
