Winter in Utah can sometimes feel like a real-life Hallmark movie. Powdery snowflakes drifting past streetlights, red rock canyons dusted in white, and families bundled up to sled, tube, or build snowmen. 

And if there’s one holiday snack that fits effortlessly into every cozy moment, it’s Cache Toffee. Rich, buttery, beautifully packaged, and handcrafted in Utah, it’s the perfect companion for the season’s best cold-weather activities. Here are five iconic Utah winter traditions made even sweeter with Cache Toffee.

Sipping Hot Cocoa After a Day in the Snow

Whether your winter day involves sledding at Sugarhouse Park, skiing or snowboarding in Big or Little Cottonwood Canyon, or building snowmen in your own yard, nothing warms your family up faster than a mug of hot cocoa. Utahns take their cocoa seriously, and adding Cache Toffee to the mix makes it unforgettable.

Drop a square directly into your cup for instant buttery richness, crumble it over whipped cream, or enjoy a piece on the side for a crunchy contrast. The toffee melts slightly with the steam, creating a cozy holiday snack that tastes like pure winter magic. Consider building a hot chocolate bar with different Cache Toffee flavors to delight the neighborhood. 

Strolling Temple Square’s Christmas Lights

Christmas in Salt Lake City wouldn’t be complete without a walk through Temple Square to enjoy the Christmas lights. A tradition since 1965, marvel at the trees wrapped in lights as they glow each evening, inviting visitors to soak up the season.

To elevate the experience? Bring along a box of Cache Toffee to share. A triangle treat is the perfect pocket-sized holiday snack for savoring while wandering through the lights. 

Holiday Markets and Local Shopping

From the Christkindlmarkt at This Is The Place to the Park Silly Holiday Bazaar and curated artisan fairs across the Wasatch Front, Utah’s winter markets are a delight for shoppers. 

Cache Toffee is not only a great snack while you browse but also a go-to holiday gift. Its small-batch flavors and pretty packaging make it feel instantly festive, and locals love giving Utah-made treats to neighbors, coworkers, and teachers. It’s the easiest holiday snack you can carry through the market.

Snowy Hikes in Utah’s Great Outdoors

Utah’s famous bluebird days make the state’s trails even more enchanting when the temperatures drop. Popular winter hikes like Donut Falls, Silver Lake Loop, the Provo River Parkway, or even Logan Canyon deliver views of Utah’s winter beauty.

Pack some Cache Toffee as your trail reward. A few nibbles of Summit are the perfect post-hike pick-me-up, delivering sweetness and crunch after miles of crisp air and fresh powder. It’s simple, satisfying fuel for enjoying Utah’s wild winter landscapes.

Sledding Parties and Cozy Nights In

Some of the best Utah winter memories happen close to home. Sledding in the neighborhood, movie marathons snuggled under blankets, board games by the fire, and family gatherings that stretch from afternoon into evening.

Cache Toffee fits effortlessly into every one of these moments. Place a bowl of Party Popcorn on the table for guests, use crumbled toffee as a topping for brownies, or send each family member home with their favorite flavor. It’s an easy way to make Utah winter traditions feel even more special.

Make Utah’s Winter Even Sweeter

Cozy Utah traditions are all about staying warm, spending time with family, and enjoying the community. Handcrafted Cache Toffee adds just the right touch to every snowy celebration, whether you need gifts for Christmas in Salt Lake City or something sweet for winter evenings at home.

As you’re walking Temple Square, exploring a holiday market, or winding down after a day in the mountains, take Cache Toffee along for the experience. It’s the most delicious part of Utah winter traditions.
