Our Story

A journey that proves faith and perseverance can turn a homemade recipe into a global legacy.

2011 — The Original Purpose: From "Café com Batom" to the First Jar

In 2011, while raising my two young children, Giovanna and Giulio, I decided it was time to reinvent my professional life. That's how Café com Batom was born — an event created for women who, like me, were looking for inspiration and connection.

What started as a small gathering, built with faith and a lot of perseverance, slowly grew into something bigger: a homemade coffee cream recipe that friends and family couldn't stop asking for.

2012 — A Brazilian Brand Is Born

A year later, that recipe became a brand: Café Caramello was born — proudly Brazilian, created to bring the comfort of a great cup of coffee into every home, ready in seconds, with no machine and no shortcuts. We became pioneers of an entirely new category in the coffee market: creamy, ready-to-drink coffee.

14 Years, 4 Countries, 9 Factories

Today, 14 years after that first idea, Café Caramello has grown into a true international brand — with production in Brazil 🇧🇷, the United States 🇺🇸, Portugal 🇵🇹 and the United Arab Emirates 🇦🇪. 9 factories and more than 100 franchises now carry the same recipe around the world, built on the same promise we started with.

2022 — Arriving in the United States, FDA-Approved

In 2022, Café Caramello officially landed in the United States — FDA-approved — bringing our signature coffee cream to American homes under the name Caramell Coffee. What began around a small table in Brazil now reaches homes across the ocean, made with the exact same care as the very first batch.

How to Prepare & Enjoy

No machine, no blender, no waiting. Open the jar, stir, and it's ready — hot or cold, straight from the spoon or mixed into your favorite drinks and recipes.

• Hot Coffee: stir 1–2 tablespoons into hot water or steamed milk for an instant creamy latte.
• Iced Coffee: mix with cold milk over ice, top with whipped cream for an iced caramel coffee.
• Pancakes & Waffles: drizzle warm over your stack instead of syrup.
• Yogurt & Fruit: swirl into yogurt or oatmeal with fresh fruit and granola.

Simple Recipe Ideas

Iced Caramel Coffee — Fill a glass with ice, add 2 tablespoons of Café Caramello, pour cold milk (or a milk alternative) on top, stir well and finish with whipped cream.

Coffee Cream Pancakes — Make your favorite pancake batter as usual, then warm a few tablespoons of Café Caramello and drizzle it over the stack in place of syrup.

Protein Coffee Shake — Blend the Whey Protein flavor with milk, ice and a banana for a post-workout coffee shake.

Coffee Yogurt Parfait — Layer plain yogurt, granola and berries, then finish with a swirl of Café Caramello on top.

Storage & Care Tips

To keep your Café Caramello at its creamiest and most flavorful:

• As soon as it arrives: store it refrigerated — the fridge works great for everyday use, and the freezer is ideal for longer shelf life.
• Shelf life: up to 6 months in the fridge, or up to 12 months in the freezer. Even frozen, it never turns fully solid — it stays creamy and ready to use.
• Left out of the fridge? It's safe for up to 7 days, though refrigeration keeps the flavor and texture at their best — heat can speed up the loss of creaminess.
• Keep the jar tightly closed after each use, away from heat, direct sunlight and humidity, and always use a clean, dry spoon.
