Desserts have always been the best part of the meal for me - sometimes, the only part. My sweet tooth is insatiable. My grandma Martha Nonnemacher inspired me to bake as a teenager. I enjoy creating desserts, eating them, and sharing the moment with others. I got the opportunity to put my passion into action on season 4 of The Next Great Baker on TLC. Check out my short video Meet the Bakers.
Years ago, I received two family toffee recipes, which I tweaked a bit and made my own. I began making my toffee during the holiday seasons, handing it out as gifts to friends and family, and selling it at craft fairs. The response was sensational! And thus my dream came true, a marriage of passion and confection, the launch of Aimee’s Toffee.
My other passion, besides desserts, is supporting Going Global Inc., and going with my dad, Dennis Nonnemacher, on missions trips he leads to help orphans and widows around the world. Some of his favorite places to serve are Nepal, Myanmar, and the Andaman Islands. I’ve visited some of the orphanages, and my heart fell in love with the children and the countries.
It’s my desire that the proceeds of Aimee’s Toffee help the kids. So far, I’ve been able to send a few thousand dollars to help meet the basic needs--food, clothing, and education for the children, and I can’t wait to do more. Aimee’s Toffee is truly "sweet for you, sweeter for orphans." Watch a short video.
Thank you for visiting my website. I hope this glimpse into my heart causes your sweet tooth to be activated. Join in the cause to help feed and care for children globally. Buy Aimee’s Toffee!

We were pleased to announce the winners of the Global Carrier Billing Summit Awards 2017 at The Amba Hotel, Marble Arch in London 26th September 2017.
“Orange has been developing and expanding their DCB service in different regions. “Pay with Orange” provides customers in Africa a new alternative way of making payments…Thanks to its large presence in emerging markets, Orange has a head start on improving DCB engagement and monetisation.”
“Centili leads through managing the payment interfaces for Merchants to ensure the roller coaster revenue effect is levelled and enabling Carriers to open billing solutions ahead of their own implementation of Carrier Billings platforms…They have been contributing to DCB service and continually developing new services.”
“Being able to buy physical goods is the final frontier for DCB and key to unlocking its full potential. Bango’s Amazon Japan use case is a great example of this…. The availability of carrier billing in the Amazon Japan store takes DCB to a new level.”
With less than a month before we head back out onto the green on the 6th July, there is still time to come and join us for a day of relaxed networking in the open air; and with the sun shining today it is nice reminder of what a great day out our AIME Golf Day is.
This is good way to meet new business contacts, play some golf, have a drink and a bite to eat on a summers day. You do not need to be a member of AIME to join our Golf Day, and you do not need to be a professional golfer to take part! You can put your own team together, with your staff and clients or come as a single player to take advantage of the networking opportunities and we will create a team for you.
The day kicks off at the beautiful Pyrford Golf Course near Wisley Gardens in Woking at 8.00am with breakfast rolls and coffee, before you head off to practise on the driving range. The teams are then split for a two tee start and the day begins! With an interesting course of challenges including our in house Nearest the Pin and Longest Drive competitions, it is great way to build relationships and have some friendly banter on the green. Then head back to the Clubhouse where you can relax at the bar and go over the day’s events with your team mates, before settling down for the late afternoon BBQ and the days awards!
Opportunity to take part in the day’s competitions and be in with a chance to win one of the day’s awards
If you want to come but think you may need accommodation either the night before or the night of the golf please get in contact as we can help arrange this for you. This means you will not have to worry about getting to the course on time if you are coming from further away, and can arrive at the golf course refreshed and ready for the day ahead.
If you want to get more involved in the day we have a range of Sponsorship opportunities to suit every budget, and help the day go with a swing, while promoting your company out on the course. Please contact AIME for more details.
