Toffifee - 250g

Toffifee sits in that odd spot between a box of chocolates and a bag of sweets. Too smart for the bus, not smart enough to hide from the kids. It turns up at birthdays, on visits to your nan's, and on the side at work when somebody is leaving and nobody knew what else to buy.

People in Canada tend to remember the shape before the name: the tray, the rows, the little cups lined up like they are waiting for an inspection. Then the name comes back, and so does the craving.

The 250g box is one for sharing, or at least for pretending you are going to. Keep it somewhere cool and well away from a sunny windowsill, and the tray stays as tidy as the day you opened it. It goes on the table with a pot of tea, or on the arm of the sofa for a film nobody actually chose.

Storck is the same company behind Werther's Original and Merci, so if your gran's handbag always had a bag of the first, there is a fair chance a tray of these was sitting somewhere nearby.
