Walker's Nonsuch Double Dipped Chocolate Toffees - 135g

Toffee is one of those British sweets that lives somewhere between the corner shop counter and your nan's handbag. Walker's Nonsuch is a proper Staffordshire name, and a bag of their toffees has been handed round on car journeys and office desks for generations.

People go looking for these because they want that particular chew, the slow one that turns a single toffee into a five-minute commitment. Memory is fussy like that. It wants the bag it knows, with the name it grew up with.

It is a 135g bag, a good size for sharing or for quietly not sharing. Keep it somewhere cool and dry in the cupboard, well away from the radiator, so the chocolate stays where it belongs. It earns its place on the film night, the long drive and the biscuit tin that is secretly a sweet tin.

Walker's Nonsuch are toffee people first and foremost, and these sit happily alongside the rest of their toffees. Add a few British chocolate bars or a bag of boiled sweets to the order and you have a proper corner-shop haul.
