Title: EXCELLENT!
Review: This is the first time I’ve ordered this particular product from this vendor. Product arrived fresh, well packaged. Each individual candy is wrapped well — none are coming undone or with taffy leaking out. Best buy date is 15 months from the day I received it, so product is fresh. I’ve already tasted and candy is EXCELLENT!! I will purchase again!

Title: Boardwalk-Worthy Taffy: Irresistibly Delicious and Full of Flavor
Review: Am I on the Boardwalk Somewhere Out East? Because This Taffy Is Just Too Good! It’s like a taste of seaside nostalgia with every bite, and I can’t seem to stop eating it—seriously, it’s that irresistible. The flavors are absolutely spectacular, and the variety is impressive. I don’t think there’s a single bad flavor in the mix; each one is as delicious as the last. The texture is perfect too—chewy, ooey, and gooey in all the right ways. It really captures that classic taffy experience and brings it straight to your door. If you’re craving a sweet treat that’ll transport you to the boardwalk, look no further. This taffy is pure indulgence in every piece

Title: Wonderful
Review: This is the best taffy. It ships well. Does not stick to wrap paper. Does not pull on teeth. Every piece is so good. I order the large assorted bag and share with my 86 yr old mother. I have bought 2 large bags and will Always buy from Taffy Town.

Title: Good. Maybe even very. Just not great!
Review: 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.

Title: ODD WANG & A SOUR TASTE
Review: It has to be bad for me to write a bad review. This taffy is BAD! I tried to eat each of the flavors over time but ended up spitting them all out after a few chews. Each color of these pieces were supposed to represent different flavors but they all had the same underlying problem of an odd wang and sour taste. I have bought taffy from other online sellers and it was very good with very discerning flavors, some better than others. I will toss $35 and 5# of nastyness out to the trash. I will buy not buy anything more from Taffy Town. I do not recommend buying this product.

Title: Great taste, but a couple drawbacks.
Review: I buy taffy from the local grocery store delivery, which come in 1 pound bags. I saw this 5 pound Taffy Town Taffy bag on Amazon so I decided to try it. The local taffy I buy ends up being Taffy Town taffy, since it is wrapped with the same Taffy Town wrappers. The flavors are also pretty much the same. Both the Taffy Town taffy and the local taffy have the same problem. Some pieces are poorly wrapped causing some to stick to other pieces. I took the picture of the last few pieces when I was refilling my candy jar. There was a few pieces which had to be thrown out since they had leaked so much out of their wrapper and strongly stuck to other pieces that the taffy couldn’t be separated easily from the paper. I decided to take a picture of the few pieces left which are not a big deal but as you can see it was the light orange taffy that was leaking and sticking to other pieces. The taffy I buy locally also seems to have 1 flavor that is wrapped poorly as well. I will continue to buy locally though, unless Amazon has a sale since both vendors have the same problem, and the taffy I buy locally is a little less expensive. If I didn’t have it available locally though, I wouldn’t hesitate ordering it again. I also think it would be nice if the taffy was packaged in a resealable bag.

Review: Excellent product. Real Salt Water Taffy. I received the 5lb bag and dove right in. The flavors are excellent and the taffy was fairly soft. I’ve bought taffy before from stores that were really hard. Really tasty and I’m happy with my purchase
