Enstrom
Buttery, Crunchy, Chocolaty Toffee
More than 80 years ago, “Granddad” Chet was at home in his kitchen creating the original Enstrom’s Almond Toffee recipe. As time passed, he perfected the recipe and began giving his toffee to family and friends. They couldn’t get enough of it, and by 1960 they convinced him to make a business out of this amazing confection. Now celebrating 50 years, Enstrom's takes pride in creating the finest, hand-crafted almond toffee available. Enstrom's uses all fresh, natural ingredients, and still operates with the philosophy Chet started all those years ago – we’re just making a little almond toffee for a few of our friends.
