Confectionately Yours

​​“When we tasted Sue Burns’ Northwest Gourmet toffee (and then tasted it again, just to be sure), we knew we had discovered something special. Burns assumed the torch of the Bothell-based wholesale toffee business that her husband’s great-aunt ran for more than 40 years after the aunt retired at age 81. Thanks to Burns, this gourmet toffee—with its big almond chunks and dark chocolate layered on both sides of the hard, buttery sweetness inside—is still alive and well at Metropolitan (metropolitan-market.com) and Town & Country (townandcountrymarkets.com) markets.”
