Literally the best toffee I've ever had, I'm a nurse and brought in some for my co-workers and everyone can't stop raving about it! Can't wait for the next order!

I didn't know I loved toffee until I tried 'Big Al's Best' toffee. I ordered most of the toffee to share with family and coworkers, but I ended up consuming half of what I ordered. Delicious toffee with wholesome ingredients - no additives and preservatives. Good thing it's a local business and they deliver to my home in SF. I will definitely be ordering another batch soon!

Yes! Yes! Yes!
So, I'm not a big dark chocolate fan. But when a neighbor posted some information about this toffee, I thought, "well it's for a GREAT cause". So I bought two boxes. That was last night. This is today....today is a sad day as there is no more toffee left! Holy moly! I'm actually in "the candy business" and have become a fan

This is today....today is a sad day as there is no more toffee left! Holy moly! I'm actually in "the candy business" and have become a fan of Estroms from Colorado. Never again!!!! Big Al's are amaaaaazing little nuggets of love! Try it - you will not be disappointed!
Thank you Al for sharing your amazing gift with us!
