Peppermint Red & White Gourmet Salt Water Taffy 1 Pound Bag

I tried Taffy Town when I recently stayed at the Marriott Gaslamp hotel in San Diego. They have a huge basket of these little treats at the check-in desk and as I was checking in, a smiling man walked beside me and asked the clerk if he could have more, and she graciously said, “yes, of course.” He grabbed a handful and walked away happy. I took a couple of pieces and walked to my room to get ready for the Billy Joel & Sting concert next door at Petco Park. As soon as I got into my hotel room I quickly unwrapped the piece of candy and popped it in my mouth, curious to find out how good these actually are, and I was not disappointed!! The flavors are rich, some sweet, some savory, but all are really terrific no matter which you prefer. Love these, once I got home and bought a big bag, and I keep some at work on my desk and some at home for guests (and for me, of course!!).

Coming from NJ and growing up on saltwater taffy from down the shore made me sceptical at first about trying this. But I'm amazed at how great all of the flavors are!! The flavors in this mix include watermelon, root beer float, green apple, banana, blue raspberry, cherry, grape, orange creamsicle, vanilla, chocolate, caramel, peppermint, cinnamon, neopolitan and black licorice!! I loved every flavor and can taste the quality. There's only two complaints I have though. The first is that the taffy is very hard!!! The way to solve this problem is by warming the taffy by holding it in your hand or putting them between your thighs to soften them with your body heat. If you don't do this first you're seriously risking ripping any fillings or crowns out of your mouth!! My second complaint is that the flavors aren't evenly distributed whatsoever!! Out of the whole 5 pound bag, I only received around 10 each of vanilla, cherry, grape and blue raspberry ☹️ Which was a bummer. So hopefully Taffy Town or Amazon will correct the issues that are causing this Taffy to be so hard and will distribute the mix of the flavors more evenly. Otherwise they're amazing, a great deal and highly recommended!!! Check out Taffy Town's website and discover all of their other amazing and unique flavors.

Third brand I purchased, softer and much more flavorful than the others. Wish i didn't have to buy such a large bag.

Ok, perhaps I'm biased having gone to high school in New Jersey with easy access to the Jersey Shore and all the tons of options for salt water taffy we had, but this, while good, is not great. For one, they have an odd assortment of flavors. I mean the salt water taffy staple... banana... the Big Mac or whopper of salt water taffy.... non-existent. How??!! But they do have 'chocolate' and some 'neopolitain-type' thing.Then they have something purple. It's not grape. It's not blackberry or blueberry. It's like if someone said 'What kool aid flavor do you want?' and they replied 'Purple!' ...and you dumped in a little too much sugar while making it.On the flip side, they do have an excellent peppermint, albeit it's all too sparse in the mix. A couple others are great as well, like the mint green that's ironically not mint. Don't know what it is, but I do like it. Go figure.All in all, it is good. It'll do in a pinch. All were soft. None were too hard or g*d forbid 'stale and crunchy' but they also aren't Jersey Shore quality either. Again, maybe I am biased, but aren't all reviews? Isn't that the point?All that said I ate a good three pounds of the five in the first week and a half because it may not be the best, but it's sure addicting! My dentist thanks me.

Soft and fresh. Many pieces in bag. Easy to eat. Good enough that I bought them again.

I was pleased with the assortment of flavors that came in the 5lb bag and with the freshness of the taffy. All of the flavors taste great! Will definitely purchase again.

They are not as soft as I was hoping. The flavor is okay but there is this saltyness to them that is just too much. Taffy is not supposed to be salty. Not sure what to do with this huge bag now. I can’t do it. If you want soft taffy that has great flavor, this is not that taffy.

This taffy is wayyyyy too good!!! Very fresh, very flavorful, shipped quickly in protective box. Will order again when this bag is gone!

There's are different suppliers, Canadain ginger, Taffy was the best. great flavors, soft and was delivered quickly

Fast, yummy, high quality. Thank you!

Toffee are delicious and surprise by the quantity.Everyone that offer some find them delicious 😋 😉 😤 😏 😜 👌

A bit too chewy for my opinions, but maybe other people think differently. They taste really good overall. They came in good condition and were pretty fresh. I like that there is even more flavor from where I used to buy them. Decent prize. Interesting product. I reccommend
