Toffifee stands out on a selection box shelf mostly because of its shape — a small domed chocolate cup that's clearly built from several distinct layers rather than being a solid piece. That layered construction, and the slightly odd name, both have a specific explanation.
Four layers, one shell
Toffifee was created in 1973 by the German confectioner August Storck KG. Each piece is built in distinct layers: a hazelnut sits at the base, surrounded by a soft caramel, topped with a light chocolate-hazelnut nougat cream, and the whole thing is finished with a chocolate coating, all set inside a thin wafer-like cup. That construction — four distinct textures in one small piece — is what makes it feel more complex to eat than a standard filled chocolate.
Where the name actually comes from
"Toffifee" is a portmanteau: "Toffi" from toffee, referring to the caramel layer, and "fee" from the German word "Kaffee" (coffee), reflecting the product's original concept as a coffee-cream-flavoured sweet. In the United States, the product is sold under the name "Toffifay" instead, due to a trademark conflict with an existing US brand — the recipe is the same, only the name changes.
What we actually stock right now
We don't currently stock Toffifee directly. If it's the hazelnut-and-caramel combination you're after, the closest matches in our range are Lindt Lindor Hazelnut Truffles 200g, which pairs a similar hazelnut centre with a chocolate shell, and Rolo Milk Chocolate & Toffee Tube 52g, sold as a case of 36, for the caramel-in-chocolate side of things. Both are in stock and active right now, even though neither is a direct like-for-like with Toffifee's specific layered build.
