As there is no breathing difficulty it is highly unlikely that toffee is in wind pipe .
Next Steps
Try gargling with Lukewarm water for foreign body sensation.
Health Tips
If still in doubt and want to confirm get a neck X-ray done ap+lateral view. Though it is not mandatory if no difficulty in breathing.

It has melted already. And the discomfort is actually because of a foreign body sensation.
You can try having lukewarm water. It'll help.
Next Steps
If at all there's a difficulty in breathing, please consider visiting the nearest hospital.

Not to worry its normal if u do not have any breathing problems , still for few days take luke warm water . And it will be fine . But be careful if you have breathing problems then should reach to the nearest hospital , but since you have very early explained you symptoms thats mean you are totly fine , sometime swallowing large object like chocolate or medicine it irritates the food tract so its totally normal just enjoy. Still need any help u can contact me .

Hello,
Sometimes, after swallowing something, the throat can remain irritated for a few days, giving a feeling that something is still stuck.
However, to be safe, I recommend you visit a doctor/ENT specialist for an examination and possibly an endoscopy to confirm that nothing is lodged in your throat or oesophagus.

If you are feeling more pain or difficulty in breathing or swallowing than you can do one x ray neck (AP and lateral)
. Than you can again consult...
Most of these cases nothing to worry...since it is 3-4 days the foreign body(toffe) will go into your gut and got absorbed...

I don’t think it’s stuck there. Maybe while swallowing, it might’ve injured the throat causing a little swelling. No need to worry.
Next Steps
If symptoms persist, then consult a doctor in person.
