Product Description

The original Mackintosh creamy toffee pieces. A real Canadian treat. Mackintosh's Toffee is a candy, currently manufactured in Switzerland by Nestle. The product is known widely throughout Canada and is licensed for sale in Canada by Nestle Canada. Its creator, John Mackintosh, opened up his sweets shop in Halifax, Yorkshire, England in 1890, and the idea for Mackintosh's Toffee, not too hard and not too soft, came soon after. The product is often credited with being over 100 years old. Nestle does not distribute it in the US but one may order it online for delivery. Give your Mack a smack! One of the most sought after products sold in Canada and other parts of the world with over 100 years of tradition behind it. Mackintosh's Toffee is a golden caramel-like toffee that is a little more chewy than a regular caramel yet not as hard as the American Sugar Daddy sucker. This flavour can not be imitated. However, its consistency depends on the temperature of the surroundings

5.0 out of 5 stars If you love toffee, this is the best, December 10, 2007

This is by far the best toffee on the market. It doesn't stick to your teeth, nor is it brittle - it is just right.
If you love toffee, this will delight the senses (and it can be frozen!).

Christmas just isn't Christmas for my husband without Mackintosh toffee. He grew up in the Seattle area and his parents would buy it in Vancouver BC for his Christmas stocking. It is still a part of our holiday tradition.

I was VERY disappointed in both the quality and price of this product. The quality was poor, as the candy was stale, and the price was totally ridiculous...over $16.00 for a few pieces of toffee. I'll never buy this item from this seller again. Hopefully the Mackintosh's toffee bars will become available again sometime soon, because I've never had a bad one of those!

My husband and I have fond memories of packing the old Mackintosh candy bars into the Quetico country of western Ontario 30 years ago when we were both in school and a canoe trip into the wilds of Canada was our vacation. Eating a piece of this toffee was a special treat each dinner. We periodically got some of the bars on our occasional trips to Canada for many years after, but it seemed to disappear from the stores for the past five or so years. I was delighted to find that I could still buy this product in some form (I still prefer the old candy bar format to this new one), and that I could order it from the US and not pay an exorbitant price for shipping. I don't know why all the fuss is made over chocolate - this is the best candy ever made in my opinion!
