Along Israel’s coastline and in its cities, salt is an essential element of the daily table – it’s sprinkled over tomatoes, folded into baked goods, and paired instinctively with sweets. Fenster’s Salt Toffee is a sweet treat that embodies this custom. This handmade candy balances cooked caramel with a clean hit of salt, creating a sensation of sweet and savory that often meet in the same bite.
Each piece begins with sugar cooked slowly to a deep caramel, then blended with butter and cream until the mixture turns smooth and glossy. Salt is added directly into the batch, not dusted on top, so it carries through the candy instead of sitting on the surface. Once cooled, the toffee sets firm and breaks cleanly, then softens gradually as it warms. The salt sharpens the caramel and keeps the sweetness in check, making this a candy people reach for alongside coffee or after a meal.
The toffee is cut into small squares and wrapped individually. Inside the sturdy box, each piece stays protected from heat and movement, reflecting how sweets like this are commonly stored and shared in Israeli homes, where a bowl of candies often sits ready for guests.
