Enstrom's Almond Toffee review & GIVEAWAY


My whole family is big on chocolate, toffee and especially nuts so I was SO excited when Enstrom's agreed to send me a box of milk chocolate almond toffee for review.  I have had toffee on numerous occasions from a variety of places and was pleasantly surprised when I first tasted Enstrom's toffee.


Enstrom's milk chocolate almond toffee contains only 5 ingredients- almonds, butter, sugar,milk chocolate and salt.  Their site states "This is the one that made us famous" and there is no question about that!  The toffee arrived in a beautiful box (perfect for a gift!).  It contained a slip telling you to place it in the fridge for an hour-  Ours lasted in the fridge about 5 minutes before I just had to try a piece.  When I opened the box, I was impressed with how much toffee was in the 1 lb box.  I was able to share with my husband, children, my parents, and nephew (and I ate more than my fair share ;o)  Everyone loved it!

This is the perfect blend of delicious milk chocolate with crushed almonds, buttery toffee and tons of fresh almonds inside- The finest toffee I have ever tried.  The box lasted 2 days, and only because I saved some to share!


Enstrom's also offers numerous other products I can't wait to try.  A few of the things they offer include dark chocolate toffee, toffee popcorn, gourmet chocolate, gift ideas and corporate gifts.




About Enstrom's

"Three generations ago, Chet Enstrom perfected the art of blending the finest natural ingredients to create batches of almond toffee as gifts for family and friends. By 1960, his almond toffee had begun to develop a reputation and, at the urging of family and friends, Chet and his wife, Vernie, founded Enstrom Candies in Grand Junction, Colorado.

Over the years. the business has grown and been passed down from generation to generation. The family still follows the same original recipe for the almond toffee that Chet perfected almost 60 years ago. The family has also created a delectable selection of fine chocolates, which like the toffee, is blended with only the freshest natural ingredients to create luxurious and unique creations that are shipped around the world."

Buy it:  You can purchase Enstrom's products off their site.

Win it:  Enstrom's has offered to give one of my lucky readers their own 1 lb box of milk chocolate almond toffee!!  ARV $18.95
