British brand of toffee
Varieties of the original Toffos

Toffo was a British brand of toffee, produced by Mackintosh's. The toffee came individually wrapped in a roll, and were available in plain, and assorted (apple, strawberry, pineapple, banana, and mint) flavours.

The company was one of the main brands along with Polo, Quality Street, Toffee Crisp, Fox's Glacier Mints, and Caramac. Its original advertising slogan was "a man’s gotta chew what a man’s gotta chew". Production was taken over by Rowntree Mackintosh Confectionery after Rowntree's merged with Mackintosh's in 1969.

Toffo was discontinued in 2005 before being resurrected by Nestlé, in a small 19.2g tube, produced in the United Arab Emirates.
