Kelly Martin will showcase her delicious caramels on the shopping network on Oct. 26.

TROY, MI — Troy's very own Kelly Martin, owner of Kelly's Karamels, will promote her sweet treats on QVC TV shopping network as her first ever national venture on Oct. 26, according to Daily Tribune.
“We are so excited for the opportunity to gain national exposure. As you can imagine we have been busier than a one arm paper hanger — and we love every minute of it,” Martin said in a press release.
Martin founded the business in 2009 with her son, Craig. They make all different kinds of caramels —including Traditional Vanilla, Pink Sea Salt, Pecan and more — from a recipe first created by Grandma Renie, which has since been passed through the family for generations.
