Saltwater Taffy, Vanilla, 2.5Lb

Dangerously delicious, that is!! My husband volunteers in our town's revitalization committee and he & a few other men from the committee hosted a few classes of elementary school kids at the "old depot" for Halloween. The teacher of the children had prepared little Halloween goodies bags for all the kids. She also gave one to all the men - a little thank you for their time. He brought it home and planned on giving it to our grandson but I had to be nosey and check out the treats - you know, making sure everything would be safe for a 2-year old. In this little bag was one piece of white saltwater taffy with little flecks of different colored confetti (for lack of the correct name of what I saw). To be fair, my daughter would not have allowed my grandson to have it, so I didn't feel bad for unwrapping that little morsel of taffy & popping it right into my mouth. I bit down on it and it's hard to describe but I'll try. I expected it to be hard & stick to my teeth and dental work, but it did nonp of that. It was as if the candy changed from what I expected and into a buttery soft delicacy. With every chew, it continued to get softer and my mouth was just salivating. It was one of the most delicious bites of candy that I've ever had in my adult life, I kid you not! It was buttery with hints of vanilla, caramelly and some subtle spices (but not spices, idk). Nothing was overpowering and blended so well. I've eaten plenty of saltwater taffy - who hasn't gone to a beach town and not stop and watch the little taffy shop workers do their magic and then the owner would throw out some wrapped taffy samples to every one as a "thank you for watching, please tell your parents to buy some before they walk to the other taffy shop around the corner" lol. But this taffy, while it invoked memories from my youth, was different from any that I remembered. To be honest, I really don't remember what any of those taffy samples I was lucky enough to get from the owners of those taffy shops tasted like. Anyway, I checked that little Halloween bag again, just to be sure there wasn't a second one in the bag. There wasn't. I told my husband about it. I told my daughter about it. They were like "it's just taffy" and I was like "but it's the best taffy I've ever had in my life!" I was determined to find out where that teacher got the taffy from and I live in a small town with one elementary school. I knew it wouldn't be hard to find her name. But I thought that would be weird trying to explain that the only reason I need her name was to get the brand name of a candy. Then I remembered I have access to several AI "assistants." And boom, first try I had 2 brand names at my finger tips. This brand and another one. I asked this AI wonderbot which one was more popular. Without a seconds hesitation, it said Taffy Town and I ran to Amazon and there it was. I could have over TWO POUNDS of those tasty morsels in my hands in 2 days. I threw it in my cart without reading review #1 before I hit buy it. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't something that would be delivered the next day but I figured I'd regain enough dignity and wait like an adult. With every notification from Amazon, Shop app, and the good ol' USPS, I grew a bit more excited and I may have met the postman in the yard before he could leave the package at my door. I got in and ripped that Amazon envelope open faster than I have any other Amazon package I've received in a very long time. There it was, hundreds of pieces of white taffy with little colored confetti and I knew that this had to be the right brand for it was just like I remembered from that fateful day when I put that little nugget of goodness in my mouth. I'm not going to drag this review out, I'm sure I already sound like a crazy lady. I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I no longer cared if this was the brand that teacher put in her goodies bags because this brand right here, omg! It had to be because it was even more delicious than I remembered. I couldn't stop eating them. I ate more & more, every time I walked by my kitchen table that first day, I grabbed a few pieces. I loved that the taffy didn't stick to the wrapper. It rolled right off with limited stick. I was chomping down on one piece as I was unwrapping the next. I tend to have candy obsessions. I know certain companies must wonder about their Boosts in sales after I get one of my obsessions. If they only pulled sales reports, they'd see my name over & over & over some more! It's embarrassing but Amazon makes it so you don't have to be embarrassed, no store clerk wondering what I must be smoking because "who in their right mind..." So if you're on the fence about ordering 2.5 pounds of saltwater taffy in just one flavor - don't be. Throw it in your cart - heck, just go ahead and hit that BUY NOW button right. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED, THAT'S MY PROMISE TO YOU!! I tell you no lies. To Taffy Town - I thank you, from the bottom of my heart I thank you! PS - I don't have any pictures to post, don't ask me why...

I live in TN and just left a stay in Gatlinburg Smoky Mountains where taffy candy makers line the Parkway. I have bought regular taffy (not salt water) in Gatlinburg for decades. However, I have come to the age where I need my taffy to be softer and not a threat to dental implants and crowns. Salt water taffy is softer than regular taffy so I purchased 2-1/2 lbs of chocolate salt water taffy from this supplier and it was delicious, soft, easily chewable and can melt in your mouth. It arrived in a large plastic bag packed in a box and it was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. I would love to see a “choose your own mix” option. I will definitely be back.

This saltwater taffy is delicious. The peppermint is like eating a soft candy cane. I’ll definitely buy more.

HARDEST TAFFY EVER TRIED!!! So disappointing! Bought locally 1/2 hour drive but needed delivered, for a Christmas party so we thought it would be soft and it was the hardest weve ever had! I couldn't even offer it out! CANT CHEW IT! And I go on to return and it wont let me! So sad complete was of money for a giant bag :(

I love this flavor, creaminess and overall texture!! Love it!!

Very good texture- soft and chewy with nice melt. Cinnamon flavor is good, but a little too much flavor and heat. A bit strong tasting. Still, I will buy again along with other flavors. The peppermint flavor is perfect!

Tastes good

Tasty. Good taffy. I’ll give a 3 for that. But not really strong peppermint flavor. I was hoping for the flavor like the Brach Peppermint Nuggets that you can only get during Christmas time. Now I know and curiosity satisfied.
