About Toffee crisp
Toffee Crisp is a popular chocolate bar originating from the United Kingdom, first introduced by Rowntree's in 1963 and now produced by Nestlé. It combines a crisped rice base layered with soft, chewy caramel, all encased in a smooth milk chocolate coating. As a confectionery item, Toffee Crisp predominantly offers energy-dense macronutrients with a focus on carbohydrates and fats, making it a quick source of energy. A 38g bar typically provides around 200 calories, 7g of fat, 30g of carbohydrates (with approximately 24g being sugars), and 1.8g of protein. While Toffee Crisp is not a significant source of micronutrients, it may contain small amounts of calcium and iron due to the milk and cocoa content.
