Did you know there is a small difference between carAmel and carmel besides the obvious “A” in the name?

Well, first of all let me just say upfront that I checked about 10,000 websites to come to a conclusive answer and therefore I am not going to list them all, but believe me I am not making this up! Here is what I found:

  • In some cases, carmel and carAmel are essentially the same thing – people just pronounce it differently – some websites in fact blame this fact on laziness of people.

  • The “real” way to spell it and say it is in fact, carAmel, but some people just don’t say the added syllable of the “A”

  • CarAmel is a brown, super sweet, sugar while Carmel may refer to a place or a person

  • CarAmel is a confection used in puddings and other desserts that is made by heating sugars to the point of melting. The color of the caramel will be shades of brown.

  • Carmel is a Hebrew word. It is the name of many locations worldwide including Mount Carmel in Israel.

  • CarAmel is a candy – simply put. CANDY is and should be said as caramel and the same goes to any color or shade of tan/brown that you may refer to as a “carAmel” color. Other times, if you are referring to a church, city, person's name or other anything NOT the candy or color, it is carmel.
