How to Clean Caramel From Your Clothes

how to remove caramel from clothes
Halloween is a little over a month away. There are candy displays in every corner of the grocery store, and all the local harvest festivals are starting in just a few days.

There’s going to be sugar everywhere: bags of chocolates, popcorn balls, candy apples and candy corn. Little hands and faces will be covered in ooey, gooey sugar, and that can mean only one thing. More dirty clothes and stains to clean.

Everyone loves caramel. It makes a good dip and coating for apples. But one false move and you could be wearing your favorite treat. Fortunately, Speed Queen knows how to remove caramel from clothes so you can enjoy this sticky treat in peace.

  1. Remove any extra caramel with a spoon or dull knife.
  2. Run cold water over the stain on the opposite side of the fabric to force the caramel out.
  3. Pre-treat the stain.
  4. Wash in hot water.
  5. Check the stain before drying.


Sound simple? It is! This fall, your family can enjoy caramel candy in all its forms without ruining your clothes.

A Quiet Kitchen

soft-close cabinets
WHAM! BANG! BOOM!

If that’s the cacophony coming from your kitchen in the morning, after school and at dinner time, then your cabinets are enduring more wear and tear than necessary.

Regular cabinets don’t close with any finesse. Sometimes the handle slips out of your hand, causing a loud crash that’s heard throughout the house. You’re tired of the daily noise coming from your cabinets. Every time you need something from a drawer, the noise ensues. Even your oven door closes with a bang.

Fortunately, there is hope if you desire peace and quiet in your kitchen. Jenn-Air has several items with soft-door closing technology. It’s the answer you’ve been wishing for, especially if you’re tired of the slam of your oven door. Or if you have a noisy wine fridge, a soft-close door will keep those bottles from rattling.

In addition to being quiet, select Jenn-Air appliances look aesthetically pleasing because the hinges don’t protrude and ruin the design. These hinges silently pull the door closed, so there’s no more worrying if you left the door ajar.

Some Jenn-Air wall ovens and ranges have a similar feature. If your hands are full removing dinner from the oven, the auto-close technology silently and securely pulls the door closed.


Quiet and efficient, soft-close doors can bring peace to your kitchen.

Shop After Labor Day...And Save!



Labor Day is over; school is starting and you’re returning to work after a long weekend. Most of the big sales are done—but not ours! We believe Labor Day weekend should be spent playing with the kids, taking a mini-vacation or just lounging around the house. That’s why our Labor Day Sales Event goes until September 13th, so you have plenty of time to shop and save long after the holiday weekend is over.

School is back in session, and you know what that means. More clothes, more lunches and more dishes. Are your appliances able to handle the influx of chores?

You need a refrigerator and freezer combo which can accommodate more food for lunches and dinners. If you’re a fan of the freezer meal trend, then you’ll want a freezer which can hold plenty of ready-made dinners you can defrost and eat at a minute’s notice. Besides, who wants to get home from a late soccer game and have to cook dinner from scratch? It’s much easier to prep on the weekend, then defrost and cook what you need, when you need it.

But how about all those dirty dishes? A growing family leaves behind a lot of dishes, and you can’t expect a creaky old dishwasher to handle all that extra work. A new dishwasher will wash once, and then you’re done. An easy and efficient process for a busy time of the year.


Don’t worry that you missed out on Labor Day sales. We have you covered! Visit us by September 13th and find everything you need for your home.
