Hi, I’m Pete – founder of Steamboat Toffee Company.

Steamboat Toffee Company was born of my great love of inventing and cooking. It was developed by fun experimentation with good ingredients. Of course the experiments were taste tested by my friends who happily lent their tastebuds to the advancement of science.

I believe it’s very important that you, my customer, first get to know me a little. After all, you’re not just buying a pair socks here and putting them on your feet. You will be eating this, you know…by way of your mouth. This is extremely personal stuff!

As you taste the toffee, you’ll begin to understand why the gallery is so well stocked with happy faces! Steamboat Toffee Company has a particularly well balanced taste. Rather like a well written story — It has a beginning, a middle and a wonderful clean end that is subtle as it withdraws appropriately. The toffee’s “in the mouth” dissolving style is something to be experienced.

See my video below!

We like to think of it as a Rocky Mountain adventure in your mouth. We believe the superior results we attain come from us cooking in small batches and at higher altitude.

Here in Steamboat Springs, we make ourselves busy with skiing, mountain biking, flyfishing, hiking, trail running, road biking, snowshoeing and golf! Just for the record, I do take my toffee with me when hiking and backpacking. I love it as a trail food!

Check out our video contest! www.FamousAmongFriends.com

This contest started as a result of our toffee friends wanting to share their joy in still photography as well as video testimonials. We thought we’d REALLY make it fun and if you give a testimonial that is determined to be the best by your and our friends, you’ll get the most votes. The person with the most votes wins A YEAR’S SUPPLY OF TOFFEE! One 8 oz. box of toffee per week for a year — 26 lbs in total.

We do reserve the right to ship in 3 month installments, 13 boxes at a time or so. Please see the contest page upload info for instructions on how to upload your video and how to get the info to us properly so we can get you in the running. Don’t forget to vote for your friends, or view the videos for anything that looks like fun! You will be able to vote for ALL videos, but only once for each, using your email.

You’ll also notice something about our online store, in that you can only buy boxes in pairs. We do this for a very specific reason. Certainly you’ll want a box, however you’ll want to make the other a gift to a good friend.

Rice Rivers – Yoshi Yonekawa:

Landscape photography on our website is copyrighted, but used with the generous permission of Yoshi Yonekawa.  Without his support and unflagging optimism this site wouldn’t be anywhere near the beautiful thing it is today.  We ask you to visit Yoshi’s website and we encourage you to email him and let him know how you appreciate his vision and perspective.  We certainly do!

Fortification – Yuri Chicovski:

Throughout the development of this website, there have been a couple of strong champions of the vision. Yuri Chicovsky is one of those sustaining people.  He is a videographer and artist of great vision.  His help with the “about” video and the constant banter of direction has proven to make our work here easier and more joyful!
Click here to see the documentary project for which he has recently found funding.  Of course we are truly proud of his work.  Love you Yuri!

Sam Keating:

The facial and upclose toffee “joy shots” are compliments of Sam Keating.  We had the great honor of having Sam work alongside us this past summer during the earlier phases of our web project.  His disarming demeanor allowed for us to get the happy foodie photos we had hoped for.  He gave us the personal touches of truly honest expressions that we sought.  Thank you Sam!
