Dried Fruits

• Go for a natural sweet topping on your toffee by sprinkling it with dried fruit. Dust the cooling toffee with diced dried apples for a classic flavor or use dried cranberries for a tangy treat. Go for a sophisticated sweet by sprinkling the warm toffee with chopped dried apricots. Sprinkle dried strawberries and raspberries over the cooling candy to create a berry sweet.

Candy Chips

• Top toffee with candy chips to keep things simple, yet flavorful. Sprinkle dark chocolate chips over the warm toffee for a potent taste or use butterscotch candies for a subtle background flavor. Create a colorful candy by dropping cherry chips over the toffee. Dust caramel and milk chocolate chips over the toffee for a creamy touch.

Melted Candy Chips

• Melted candies spread evenly over toffee to create a smooth topping that's like a frosting. Melt any candy over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and liquid. Pour the melted candy over cooled toffee. You can also dip broken pieces of cooled toffee into the melted candy to coat them completely. Another method is to sprinkle candy chips over the hot toffee, let the candies warm and then spread the warmed candy over the cooling toffee.

Colorful Sprinkles

• Sprinkles add a kick of color, as well as more sweetness, to any toffee recipe. Add the sprinkles while the toffee is still slightly warm to ensure they stick to the candy surface. Use red and green sprinkles to give the toffee a festive holiday appearance. Try red, white and blue sprinkles to give the candy a patriotic look. Dust the toffee with peppermint sprinkles to add a zippy flavor. Go for a gourmet taste by using white chocolate sprinkles.

Crushed Candies

• Adding other candy to toffee is a simple way to turn the plain treat into something special. Top the cooling toffee with crushed, chocolate-covered espresso beans to create a classy treat. Sprinkle crushed butterscotch disks over the candy for a mellow taste. Add a burst of creamy flavor to the toffee by topping it with crushed cookies and cream candy bars.
