Angelina Salted Butter Caramel Toffees
French Tradition, Artisanal Indulgence
Tasting Notes from the Curator
Within each toffee lies the heritage of Angelina Paris, captured through buttery richness and the crystalline touch of Guérande salt. The harmony of sweet and salty, expertly balanced, creates a symphony of flavors where creamy condensation of dairy meets the caramel complexity of browned sugar, underlined by a gentle whisper of sea salt from the traditional salt marshes of Brittany. The chewiness extends the pleasure, a velvety caress of flavors upon the palate, evident of labor-intensive craftsmanship. The textural finesse is a testament to French confectionery traditions – every bite, an invitation to savor the luxury of meticulously sourced ingredients and artisanal excellence.
