Caravan Ingredients was formed in 2006 when Caravan Products
and American Ingredients merged to form one operating company. The
combination of the two companies allows greater strength and
expertise in both baking and other functional ingredients,
resulting in a stronger focus to the industries we serve. Together
we have over 100 years of business experience and a proven track
record in both baking and functional ingredients. We offer a full
range of benefits for milling, bakery manufacturing, specialty
baking, large institutional accounts, processed food and industrial
