The resin contains a first resin which is a crystalline urethane-modified polyester resin resulting from increase in chain length of a component derived from a polyester resin by a compound containing an isocyanate group. The toner particles have a peak in a DSC curve in temperature increase at 55° C. or higher, have a peak in the DSC curve in temperature decrease at 30° C. or higher, and have a storage elastic modulus at 80° C., not lower than 1×105 Pa and not higher than 1×107 Pa.
