The color "toffee" in literature is often used to evoke warmth and a rich, amber quality that suggests both comfort and indulgence. For instance, in one example an architecturally detailed surface is described as "toffee‐coloured," imbuing it with a warm, inviting hue that draws the reader into its tactile presence [1]. Similarly, a tranquil pool is depicted as having a "toffee‐coloured" tint, which enhances the natural, serene atmosphere of the scene and invites associations with the gentle sweetness of the confection itself [2].
