Hobo over toffee

No other traditional sweet brings a tingle to the tongue quite like a toffee. Whether you are into chewy, butter-flavored, tough and nutty flavorings, toffee is a classic sweet treat.

When it first came on the scene, it was called as taffy sweet. The origins of the name still remain unclear though reliable sources state that the term is derived from the Latin term tofene that translates into ultimate deliciousness.

A popular variety of this sweet treat is that Everton Mint that combines a delicious mint coated sweet with a gooey toffee filling.

It is a firm favorite of the British tooth with a special preference for caramel, butterscotch and other stringent tastes. Its chewiness is created by boiling a mixture of butter and sugar to a set point, after which it is kept in steel containers for cooling. You can decide upon on the consistency of the candy by setting the timer in accordance with one’s taste. Home-made toffee can be improved by adding ingredients such as grated coconut and nougat that can be easily sourced from the local market.

Its popularity has brought on a number of online retro sweet shops that specialize in creating intricate delicacies of this simple sweet. Your wistfulness for the old-fashioned goodness need can go away with a short trip down to your beloved sweet shop with Coconut Crumble, Chocolate Nibbles, Bonfire Toffee, Banana Whirls, Cinder Toffee, Choco Licko, Assorted Toffo and Toffee Treacle all awaiting your delectation.

If chewing on these sticky sweets is not enough to satisfy your salty palate, you can try out a well-enjoyed variation of this sweet treat aka the Sticky Toffee Pudding.
