From Pharmacists to Vending Machines: The Story of the "S"
The history of Toms began in 1924, founded by two Danish pharmacists, Hans Trojel and Victor Hans Meyer. The brand name originated as an acronym of their surnames: Trojel Og Meyer. However, a unique branding challenge arose when the company expanded into the vending machine market. In Danish, the word “tom” translates to “empty,” which created a humorous but problematic misunderstanding for customers looking at a machine full of sweets. To clarify that their dispensers were indeed stocked with treats, they added an “s” to the name. Today, Toms is a cornerstone of the Nordic “lördagsgodis” tradition, standing alongside giants like Cloetta and Malaco in the hearts of Swedish and Portuguese confectionery fans alike. Owned by the Gerda and Victor B. Strand Foundation, the company maintains a strict focus on quality and sustainable cocoa sourcing.
Iconic Classics: From Rum-Filled Turtles to Witch Scream Licorice
Toms is celebrated for its diverse portfolio of textures, ranging from rich chocolates to intense salty licorice. One of their most legendary creations is the Toms Skildpadde, a dark chocolate turtle shell filled with a decadent mixture of rum cream and caramel. For those who prefer a chewy experience, the Pingvin line offers the famous Heksehyl (Witch Screams), a salty licorice stick filled with salmiak that has become a staple in Scandinavian pick-and-mix bags. Another heavy hitter is the Yankie Bar, a nougat and caramel chocolate bar originally developed for American soldiers in the 1940s. Whether you are enjoying a solid Guld Barre or exploring the sour varieties from Bubs, Toms products represent the peak of Danish confectionery craftsmanship, delivered fast to your door in Portugal with EU-wide shipping.
Modernist Design and Royal Quality: The Arne Jacobsen Factory
The commitment to excellence at Toms extends beyond the recipe book and into the very walls where their candy is made. In 1962, the company commissioned the world-renowned modernist architect Arne Jacobsen to design their headquarters and factory in Ballerup. This architectural masterpiece reflects the same precision found in their production lines, where they process their own chocolate and marzipan from scratch. As a “Purveyor to the Royal Danish Court,” Toms maintains rigorous food safety standards, holding BRC certification to ensure every Guld Barre meets international requirements. While they utilize RSPO-certified sustainable palm oil to achieve the perfect melt-in-the-mouth texture, they avoid unnecessary fillers. This dedication to “Royal Quality” makes Toms a premium choice for enthusiasts of Nordic sweets, rivaling the heritage of brands like Fazer and Toms’ own subsidiary, Anthon Berg.
