Made it with Werthers, used my mum's topping recipe instead of Gary's (but with walnuts in) and it was gorgeous. Thanks for all the advice!

Yes - but maybe make one as well for that night for you to road test first - y'know!

Make sure the apple isfully covered by the crumble.

Enjoy!

Oh one last question blush - OK to assemble this the day before, then cook it at said friend's house?

Thanks all I've ordered Werthers (embarrassing amount of prevarication but always nervous making something new to take to someone else's house)

Yes - honestly, the hardest toffees you can get are good too, the type that break fillings. They turn into puddles of goo! Mmmm

Oh, yeah any old toffee does it, I've used werthers before. Just smash them up a bit (before you unwrap them) with a rolling pin to get a bit of variety in sizes.
I'm sure fudge would be fine but I know that toffee def is!

So these would work would they WW, just chucked in as they are?

Better than fudge you reckon?

I do this but my own made up recipe - apples and rock hard budget toffees scattered throughout - eg Sainsburys basic toffee. Topping, cook, custard. Never any seconds!
