Health notes

Toffee is a food product, not a food additive, and therefore does not have a specific regulatory status like GRAS or an approved additive from the FDA. Its primary components are sugar and fat, which contribute to the overall calorie, added sugar, and saturated fat content of foods. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no amount of added sugars, and at most 10 grams of added sugars per meal, and keeping saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. Toffee itself has not been evaluated by JECFA or EFSA as a food additive.
