Making candy is an understandably intimidating task, however, learning to make our homemade Vegan Toffee is not difficult at all. You do have to keep a very close eye on it as it can go from done to burn in a millisecond.

Toffee is a sweet confection that is traditionally made by mixing sugar, butter, and cream together and heating the mixture until it reaches a specific temperature. The mixture is then poured into a mold and allowed to cool and harden. The history of toffee can be traced back to the early 19th century when it was a popular treat among the working class in England.

Vegan toffee can be made by replacing butter and cream with plant-based alternatives such as vegan butter and plant milk. This recipe is a great option for those who follow a vegan lifestyle or have a dairy intolerance.

Chefs Tips

Vegan toffee can be an ingredient for cookies, like our 48-hour Toffee Chocolate Cookies or cakes as well as its own stand-alone dessert like English toffee.
To make a Vegan English Toffee dessert you would spread the toffee evenly to the edge of the pan, allow it to cool then add a chocolate layer on top and chopped nuts. Once set, you can break it into bite-sized pieces.
