Toffee - how long can I keep it for?

I am making toffee apples on friday night (for the gala on Saturday).

Can I make a batch of toffee (not toffee apples, just the toffee) today, and then store it for sale at the gala on Saturday.
Or will my kids have to eat it!

(if I can store it, in what! an air tight container!)

Wouldn't it go all hard once cooked!

is toffee supposed to be hard!

Fudge is my thing, toffee seems like a different animal to me

Well if your'e going to make Fudge Apples then you are in forsurprise

The toffee apples I see on the markets are a hard red sugar coating around an actual raw apple on a stick.

Toffee IS a different animal - it's a tooth-breaker.Some specialty stores have fudge-like caramel squares which you can wrap around apples to make Caramel Apples, American-style.

I made a mistake. This post should have read "isn't toffee supposed to be hard"!

I have an answer to my original question.

Toffee made on Monday and kept in an air tight container will keep and be able to be sold on Saturday at a school fair.

Hope that this helps some one else
