Toffee coin man

In past Christmas', we would have a large tub of chocolate treats, there would be the strawberry fondants, cream drums and the fudges. Eventually there would be two types of sweet left in the tub, the toffee coins and the toffee fingers. Both of them had a yellow wrapper, a bit like the yellow jacket of a wasp; warning you that they can be unpleasant when handled. The toffee coins and fingers were unpopular because they were hard like plastic and gave you the sensation like you were going to break your teeth. These sweets were made for me. I didn't just put them in my mouth, I would put them in my hand and leave them there until they went soft. I used the heat from my hands to soften the rigid toffee coins, then I would put the softened sweet in my mouth, a softened toffee is totally different from a room temperature one, it goes from being the most irritating sweet to the nicest one.
