In addition to revealing some of the most unique taffy flavors known to mankind, we’re also going to share with you everything we know about saltwater taffy and Taffy Town as a brand. This will include several exciting flavors, history, and where you can buy your own supply!

True American History of Salt Water Taffy

The word ‘taffy,’ was first used in the United States during the early 1800s; although the term ‘saltwater taffy’ has a slightly different story! According to historians, the words ‘saltwater taffy’ didn’t come about until the late 19th century, and originated in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Known as a classic summer candy, taffy was very popular along the AC Boardwalk during the late 1800s. So as the story goes, one day there was a storm and many of the local beach shops were flooded with saltwater from the nearby Atlantic Ocean. 

One of the flooded stores was a candy shop famous for its locally-made taffy. The next day during clean up, a girl wandered into the shop requesting taffy. The owner of the shop jokingly replied, “sorry, we only have saltwater taffy now!” To his surprise, the girl still wanted her taffy!

After a few minutes, the girl came back with her mother to declare it the best taffy they ever had. Since then, the name saltwater taffy stood, and would continue to stand against the test of time! After all, this famous type of taffy is still around today and better than ever before! 

Is Saltwater Taffy Made With Real Saltwater

Luckily, saltwater taffy isn’t made from salty ocean water; otherwise, it might not be as enjoyable as it is today! Sure, the story is awesome, how true it is, we’ll likely never know, but it sure does sound great. 

Nonetheless, saltwater taffy isn’t made with saltwater as the name suggests. That said, we think you’ll enjoy and appreciate how Taffy Town makes its taffy; trust us, it’s much more exciting! Plus, it’s unique as nobody makes taffy this way!

With this in mind, keep reading to learn more about how traditional taffy and Taffy Town taffy is made. Also, as promised, we’re going to reveal some really exciting, hard-to-find taffy flavors, so you’ll want to stick around for that, or you can just skip the small talk and jump straight to it. 

How Normal Taffy Differs From Taffy Town Taffy

So what’s the difference that sets the two types of taffy apart, you may be wondering? If so, then you’re in the right place for answers! 

First, traditional taffy is stretched, twisted, and squeezed down to create the normal, hard-to-chew taffy mixture that often gets stuck between your teeth. So if you have sensitive teeth or braces, then regular taffy probably isn’t the best type of candy for you. 

Now, when it comes to Taffy Town taffy, they thoroughly whip the base ingredients together giving it the fluffiest structure possible. Furthermore, they use evaporated milk and a dash of salt, which gives their unique recipe a rich, creamy base that’s soft and melts like butter!

In addition to that, it takes three days to complete the process of making Taffy Town Salt Water Taffy! Unlike traditional taffy, there’s a lot of time, thought, and love that goes into making this particular type of taffy. So if you care about quality, then we recommend trying Taffy Town today!

Now that we have all that out of the way, it’s safe to say, there’s no better type of taffy available than Taffy Town taffy! Not to mention, they offer so many exciting flavors, it’s almost pointless to choose another brand, but to each their own we suppose!
