Overland Park's Cedar Street Toffee is a Melt-in-Your-Mouth Treat

Cedar Street Toffee evokes nostalgia – both because of the treat’s centuries-old origins and the company’s own history and mission. Founded by Teresa Spiess and Andrea Johnson in Overland Park, Kansas, Cedar Street Toffee aims to transport you “to a time when front doors were left open, children ran freely and your neighbors were your great friends.” Neighbors actually inspired the company, after one left a gift of toffee on their doorsteps, prompting the pair to perfect their own recipe – a melt-in-your-mouth buttery toffee with whole almonds double-coated in chocolate and dusted with crushed walnuts. The toffee is available in ¼-, ½- and 1-pound boxes, sold online and at Foo’s Fabulous Café in Leawood, Kansas.
