Brandini Toffee in Palm Springs developed from a pair of high school students’ sweet memories of visiting Italy on a class trip—the parents of founder Brandon Weimer and a childhood friend had asked them to earn half the cost of their trip, and a homegrown toffee business was their choice to fundraise.
“Brandini Toffee has since grown into a full-time family business with a passionate dedication to making the best toffee products,” Weimer explains. “Our toffee is handmade from U.S. Grade AA creamery butter and pure cane sugar, one small batch at a time.” In addition to its home base in Palm Springs, Brandini has two other brick-and-mortar retail locations in Desert Hills and Rancho Mirage. Purchases can also be made online nationwide.
For event planners looking to share something sweet with attendees, corporate gifting highlights include no minimums on product orders alongside volume discounts ranging from 10% to 25%; branded or personalized stationery, hangtags, and labels; free shipping during the fall and spring seasons; the ability to work directly with a Brandini team member throughout the ordering process; and complimentary product samples prior to ordering. Options range from individual boxes of toffee popcorn to the Brandini Bundle, featuring three flavors of popcorn and toffee bites, among others.
“We provide a level of service that we hope makes gifting effortless,” he adds. “We hope to form a long-term partnership that can take care of our client’s seasonal, recurring, or one-off gifting needs.”
