FAVORITES

Ruth's Dark Chocolate

Tombo--all of them..

Ruth's. Great balance of salty, chewiness, reminds me of baked goods. Flaked off perfectly. Good texture.

Mel's Maple Bourbon Pecan + Mel's Raspberry Toffee Mom Yvonne's Toffee

Tomo Toffee Dark Chocolate Toffee was my favorite.

Personally I like the EH Chocolatier Brown Butter, Also the texture of the Cochu sponge (dark).

Ruth's Toffee Almond Toffee -- Dark Chocolate. Close second is Tombo Toffee Orange - No. 11.

COMMENTS

I loved all the Tombo toffees..the consistency and variety in flavors. Also love the packaging.

Happiness is Toffee! Thank you! I ?? Toffee

Tomo Toffee Dark Chocolate Toffee, with its roasted almond crunchy nuttiness and quality chocolate, makes it a classic. Blue ribbon product.

I was impressed with the ingredients of the AVA toffee, however I found it too hard, perhaps the sugar had become a tad hard during caramelization process. Flavors were spot on however!!

So many fabulous toffees! Hard to pick a winner, but the Oreo Crunch from MomYvonne's just squeaks ahead!

Cochu Chocolatier's sponge toffee takes me back to my youth. The sponge toffee was great. EHChocolatier's Brown Butter Toffee was exquisite, elegant and the pinnacle in flavor. Rosie Rae's peanut butter and chocolate toffee was all around the perfect blend of texture, flavor, and yum! Mel's Toffee collaboration toffee with Dark Horse Brewery Raspberry Ale resulting in a winning combination. The raspberry shined alongside with the toffee in a delightful combination.

EH Chocolatier really, really good. All Tombo really, really good.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CHOCOLATIERS

Keep it simple. Great chocolate, good nuts..

Momyvonne's Oreo crunch. Difficulty opening package.

I enjoyed each and every toffee! Munch crunch... burp! 🙂 I was in Toffee Heaven: Thanks!

Ava's packaging was very elegant and should have kept the toffee fresh, and the toffee tasted quite good upon opening, though it was one of the ones that really stuck to one's teeth. However, after a few days it started to "weep" (got wet-gooey), even with the bag tightly sealed. The chocolate taste is excellent, but maybe that coconut sugar doesn't work as well as all cane sugar? Also, there's on such thing as "grass-fed butter," but there is "butter from grass-fed cows."

Thanks to all of the companies for a delicious experience!
