Una caramella o bonbon è un prodotto dolciario con una elevata quantità di zucchero e altri componenti, per lo più aromi naturali (come ad esempio limone, arancia, fragola, liquirizia), latte, cacao, varie forme di agglutinanti (come l'amido o la gelatina) e talune volte, coloranti e aromi artificiali. Il termine caramella sembra derivare dal latino canna mellis, ovvero canna da zucchero oppure da calamellus, diminutivo di calămus «canna». Occorre tuttavia tener presente che tale pianta è stata introdotta dagli arabi in Sicilia solo nel 900 d.C. L'origine del nome potrebbe anche derivare dai vocaboli arabi kora (piccolo globo) e mochalla (cosa dolce). La tipologia è estremamente varia e spazia dalle caramelle morbide (quali i toffee) a quelle molto dure.Le caramelle dure sono composte da una miscela di zucchero e sciroppo di glucosio cotta ad alta temperatura fino al raggiungimento di uno stato amorfo vetroso. Contengono una percentuale residua di acqua inferiore al 2-3%.
