Our exceptional toffee is handmade. A simple recipe with the
main ingredients consisting of pure butter, sugar, and almonds
is mixed and cooked by hand to precisely the same consistency
and temperature each time. We use only the finest almonds from
Blue Diamond,
and the richest chocolate from the Guittard
Chocolate Company.
Every batch we make is individually tended - start to finish.
Spreading this delightful mixture to just the right thickness
is a skill that requires a lot of learning and patience. Care
must be taken not to spread the hot toffee too thick or too thin.
The toffee layer has to be the same "easy munching"
thickness throughout. Timing is crucial, as the batches cool quickly
and must be hand stretched just a bit further after cooling down.
After being stretched and cooled just a bit more, the toffee
is cut into rectangles about 10" X 12" and placed on
adjacent tables to finish cooling. Chocolate is poured onto the
toffee and is then spread from edge to edge, carefully making
sure that the melting chocolate is at just the right thickness
all around.
After each piece is chocolate covered on one side, a very generous
dusting of toasted Almonds is applied. We then repeat the procedure
on the second side with the same special attention to detail as
on the first. When the chocolate has cooled and dried, the toffee
is moved into our cooling room to cure for 24 hours and then moved
to the packaging room and carefully laid into 1, 2, 3, and 5 pound
containers (click here to see our
packages). Immediately after packaging, orders are filled and
shipped directly to you and yours around the world.
We offer 3 flavors of toffee: dark chocolate, white chocolate,
and milk chocolate.
We also carry a unique line of specialty products, such as our ice cream
topping, which can be sprinkled onto your favorite ice cream to
add a rich chocolate toffee flavor. "Haggis Pie" is a dark chocolate treat,
"Sweetie Pie" is an artistic mix of chocolates, and "Haystack's" are made of
sugar free dark chocolate. Click
