Great caramel taste! Not a real thick caramel. we have been using it for rimming our glasses for a caramel sugared rim and its easier than the thicker caramels!

Very tasty and especially nice in a milkshake or ice cream. It has a real caramel flavor, and it is pretty affordable. I like to put lots of this in vanilla ice cream, then mix it well and finally add a splash of Coke. That may sound very weird, but you will be doing that again once you try it.

We use this sauce for mochas in our coffee shop. It would be nice if they sold the pump that goes with this bottle. Great price.

Good price compared to having to buy smaller bottles. The only reason I took away from the stars is because it’s hard to find a pump for this bottle and it can get messy trying to refill other bottles.

I bought this caramel syrup with my upcoming icecream turtle pies in mind, but it's actually quite good on icecream too. It has a gooey, thick consistency that is super sweet, but easy to dispense. The bottle does recommend refrigerating after first opening, so chances are the consistency may be a little more thick after its cold. Very good in combination with chocolate syrup too! If you like to serve banana splits, this is an awesome product :)

Really great product! I use the big jug to fill the smaller squeeze bottles for convenience and of course it's Hershey's brand so it tastes delicious. We use this as an ice cream topping and also to line cups for milkshakes. Highly recommend this product.
