It all started with a mother's determination to give her children a wonderful Christmas. Raising three young kids is no small feat, and the holidays had a way of making every dollar count. Without the modern internet and a household to keep together, Momma Rinaldi turned to her kitchen for the answer: Traditional English Toffee.
Of course, making toffee is easier said than done. Most toffees are difficult to chew, made with low quality ingredients, and stick to your teeth in all the wrong ways. And as if the challenge weren't enough, her son Luke had appointed himself the official taste tester. His approval wasn't optional.
So, Momma Rinaldi got to work. But recipe after recipe fell short. If it was going to be truly special, she knew it had to be her own. After months of quiet experimentation, countless late nights, and more failed batches than she cared to count, she finally made it. A toffee with the perfect snap, blanketed in rich chocolate and finished with a dusting of almonds. When she saw Luke's slow nod of approval, she knew. Rinaldi's Signature Toffee was perfected.
