A bakers' percentage is a system whereby the amount of flour in a recipe (irrespective of what weight the amount of flour is), is thought of as 100%. All the other ingredients are added according to the percentage of the recipe that they constitute, relative to the flour. So flour is always 100%, sugar may be 30% (of the amount of flour), butter 10% (of the amount of flour) etc... The total percentage will not add up to 100% -in fact there is not a 'standard' total.

Pretty much indefinite since it is essentially a preserve (the sugar content prevents anything from potentially rotting or going stale). However it is likely that the toffee will taste best the first few days after it has been made - after this, it may go slightly granular, or just a bit sticky due to the hygroscopic nature of sugar (although you can negate some stickyness by putting a couple of silica gel sachets into the container. Don't eat the sachets).
