Who we are

At Caramel, we believe children learn best when they are having fun. For more than 30 years, that conviction has shaped everything we make. What began as a children’s book publisher has grown into a company that creates fun and educational content for children, and keeps finding new ways to bring it to them.

We are the creative partner behind the scenes: the team that helps publishers, retailers, brands and organisations bring high-quality, market-ready content to children around the world. Three decades of editorial craftsmanship, didactic insight and a genuine feel for what works with children sit at the heart of every project.

What we do

We make children curious about the world around them. We create content that makes learning fun, sparks creativity and invites children to discover, try and grow.

At heart, Caramel is a Belgian publishing house specialised in creating and packaging edutainment books for children. We design beautiful, high-quality books and bring them to readers all over the world. This is the craft on which everything else is built.

With everything we create, we ask ourselves the same two questions: does a child learn something from this, and does the child enjoy it? Only when both answers are yes it carries the Caramel name.

What we stand for

Five values guide our work, our content and, above all, our partnerships:

• Curious: we begin with wonder and follow it wherever it leads.
• Creative: we love making, drawing, crafting and turning ideas into experiences.
• Accessible: clear, warm and welcoming, for children and partners.
• Trustworthy: thirty years of quality you can count on, every time.
• Collaborative: we build together with our partners, side by side.

We also care about the world those children are growing up in. As a company, we work to reduce our environmental footprint and to support fair, responsible ways of working, That commitment is recognised in the labels we hold. FSC stands for responsibly managed forests, BSCI for fair and safe working conditions across our supply chain, and B Corp for meeting high standards of social and environmental responsibility, a certification we have held since April 2023.
