Our Story

Caramel Kracken began long before the catchy name and vibrant logo came into existence. Just a short 23 years ago, our CEO and Founder attended a party where she came across a bowl of delicious homemade caramel popcorn. Unable to find the creator, and eager to recreate that sweet treat herself, Michelle Christian began her pursuit in creating what we know and love today as Caramel Kracken: pretzels, popcorn and rice cereal covered in a decadent homemade caramel mixture.

It wasn't until 2021 when her ambitious (and pushy) daughter, Kay Christian, would propose the idea of branding and launching this beloved treat to share with others. Today, Caramel Kracken operates as a limited food establishment based out of Bucks County, Pennsylvania and has been shared with individuals from San Diego, California all the way to Paris, France. 

Caramel Kracken takes pride in reminding everyone that life is worth celebrating, and what better way to do that then surrounding yourself with good people and a delicious treat. Cheers!
