It started with my Uncle Albin, and it's never stopped being a family thing.
When I was a little girl, my Uncle Albin would drive in from the farm on Saturday nights to see me and my four sisters. He always stopped at the grocery store first. We'd stand on the couch by the front window, pulling back the curtains, jumping for joy the second we saw his car pull up.
The five of us would swarm him at the door, and he'd hand over the candy to be ripped open and split into five equal piles, then stashed away in our own secret hiding places. We didn't have much extra growing up — but when Albin brought us those treats, we felt special. We felt loved.
Years later, when I started this business, candy just felt like the natural thing to build around. We believe everyone deserves to feel special, loved, and a little indulgent — and our premium gourmet salt water taffy is how we get to deliver that, one bag at a time. Today, Taffy2You is three generations deep: me, my mom, and my daughters.
