Butter Toffee Cashews

nuts-cashews-toffee.jpg (7807 bytes)


Toffee nuts are a very special treat!  This is a  simple way to make the full flavor of the cashew come out.  Using a heavy copper pot, fill with a mixture of brown sugar, butter and water. Bring to a boil. Add cashews that have been roasted and are ready for the coating.   Keep turning the bowl as the nuts get an kinda even rustic coating.

We have installed a chocolate panning line in our plant a number of years ago. We also added a hot syrup panning line as well as a chocolate enrobing line.
  This will allow us to make about 120 chocolate and sugar items such as chocolate peanuts, double dipped peanuts,  chocolate malt balls, and Boston baked beans.

Costa Rican
Macadamia Nuts


We just brought in a very unusual item - macadamia nuts grown in the upper highlands near Mt Arenial in northern Costa Rica.  I was in that plantation in 1997 and the nuts are extremely sweet and have a full rich flavor

We are now roasting and shipping these premium Costa Rican macadamia nuts which we will run out of in a few weeks.  There is no lovelier way to assure a wonderful gift selection than by receiving these incredibly special nuts.  They are a rare gourmet item
