Gold and Crystals
How to earn and spend gold and crystals, the two currencies of Craven's Hollow.
Gold and crystals are the two currencies in Caramel. Gold pays for everyday things like seeds, furniture, and crafting. Crystals are rarer, and they can pay for the same shop items and bigger upgrades too.
Your gold and crystal totals show on the right side of the screen.

What Crystals Buy
| Use | How it works |
|---|---|
| Shop items | Anything a shop sells for gold can also be bought with crystals. |
| Sold-out seeds | When a seed is out of stock at Maya’s shop, you can still buy it with crystals at a 30% higher crystal price. |
| Houses | Every house has a crystal price. |
| Garden upgrades | Every garden upgrade has a crystal price. |
| Grow All | Ripens every crop in your garden at once. The price depends on what is growing, with a minimum of 9 crystals. See Farming. |
| Daily quest rerolls | Replace your unfinished daily quests for 19 crystals. |
| Store items | Growth Potions, a Steel Sickle, furniture packs, pet eggs, a Beehive, and a Scarecrow. See the Store. |
Exchange Rate
In shops, the crystal price of an item is its gold price divided by 100, rounded up, then rounded to the nearest price ending in 9 (or 99 from 1,000 crystals). Prices under 10 crystals stay as they are, so 100 gold is 1 crystal.
| Gold price | Crystal price |
|---|---|
| 1,000 gold | 9 crystals |
| 5,000 gold | 49 crystals |
| 15,000 gold | 149 crystals |
Houses, garden upgrades, and Store items have their own crystal prices.
Tips
- Claim your daily reward and check your daily quests every day. Together they are the steadiest source of crystals.
- Prices that rise as you own more of an item, like the Scarecrow, cost more crystals too.
