I love digging into a bag of Thorntons special toffee as a very occasional treat, I love the different flavours they have and as a fan of Brazil Nuts this toffee is right up my street.

You can get this toffee in various sizes of packaging, it can come in little bags or you can get boxes of it, making the boxes a perfect gift. The smallest sized bag if 105g and is priced at just 99p, a bargain as the quality of this is excellent. The next size up is a 250g bag, or you can get a big box at 625g, which is probably good for a gift.

Inside your bag of toffee the pieces vary in size, you may get larger pieces mixed in with tiny pieces of the toffee, but it's already broken down for you ready to just pop into your mouth.The main thing I love about this toffee is it's not too hard to chew, nor is it too soft and infact I find it to be just right and I wouldn't change a thing about it in that area.
The toffee is high in sugar, and it certainly tastes quite sweet, but not too sweet and again, it tastes just right.

The chopped up brazil nuts in the toffee are yummy, they add something to the taste of the toffee and give a slight crunch to it to. I'm a big fan of brazil nuts and I really enjoy the taste of them with this toffee. I find the bag of 105g a nice enough size for 1 person, I can't eat it all in one sitting as it does get a bit sickly, and you get a bit tired of chewing your way through it.

As with all nice tasting things this toffee is certainly something to be saved as an occasional treat. In a small 105g packet you will find the following per 1/4 of the bag:

141 Calories
10.6g Sugar
4.3g Saturated Fat

Yes, certainly not good for you especially all that sugar. The ingredients show it contains sugar, glucose syrup and butter so very sugary and fattening.

However this is lovely as a treat and also makes a perfect gift for someone with a sweet tooth! You can purchase this in Thorntons stores or you can order online at www.thorntons.co.uk
