Caramel chocolate is a confectionery product made by covering caramel and nougat in milk chocolate. It consists of several ingredients such as nuts, fruits, and white or milk chocolate. Caramel chocolate is available in sweet, nutty, buttery, and bitter flavors, which provides more depth and reduces the overall sweetness of the chocolate. Caramel chocolate is commonly used as a flavoring agent and sauce in desserts like cakes, cupcakes, doughnuts, ice cream, custard, and chocolate candies. It is also added in martinis, pumpkin peas, coffee drinks, truffle ice-creams, and protein bars. In recent years, caramel chocolate has gained popularity as one of the most widely consumed chocolates across the globe.

The market is driven by the increasing consumption of flavored candy and confectionery items, especially among the younger population. In addition, consumers nowadays are willing to pay for premium products that have better quality and flavor, which is fueling the market growth. Besides this, the attractive packaging of caramel chocolate-based desserts and candies are also supplementing the market. Along with this, rapid urbanization and inflating disposable income levels are changing the dietary preferences of consumers, which has escalated the demand for caramel chocolates.
