Toffee needs to be stored in an airtight container or vacuum-sealed plastic bags. For humid climates, store in the refrigerator or freezer to keep its crunch. Toffee will last for weeks when properly stored, and ships excellently in vacuum-sealed bags.
Bird's Nests
These crunchy, buttery treats are popular around spring time because of their resemblance to bird's nests (hence the name!). They can be made with a variety of decorations and are a fun project for kids.
Crunchy Bird's Nests- 4 cups chow mein noodles
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter
- Jelly beans or egg-shaped candies
In a large mixing bowl, use your hands to break noodles into smaller pieces. In large saucepan, combine sugar and syrup. Cook over medium heat until sugar is melted and edges begin to bubble. Add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Pour mixture over noodles and toss to coat.









Put it all in a heavy saucepan on low heat and stir until it's all melted. Shape however you want.
