Where To Buy The Best Salt Water Taffy
I grew up on the Oregon coast in Florence, and salt water taffy was the thing to have, no matter how long you were staying! I remember going to the beach as a kid and getting bags of different flavors to bring home; it was one of my favorite treats!
Unfortunately, salt water taffy that is sold in stores is so subpar compared to the real thing that you would really be missing out. So, I put together this list of shops where you can buy authentic salt water taffy online without having to make a trip to the coast!

1. Shriver's Salt Water Taffy
Shriver's is a taffy and fudge shop located on the Ocean City boardwalk in New Jersey. In fact, it is the oldest shop on the boardwalk, having opened in 1898! They are well-known and loved for their authentic salt water taffy!

What makes Taffy Town's candy special is that they use a special handmade batch process to make all of their taffy, even 100 years later! You can purchase straight from their site or even find them on Amazon!

Taffy Shop is another primarily online store with a storefront in Utah that opened in 2020. Instead of traditional taffy pulling, the Taffy Shop uses a special process of whipping the candy for 24 hours to make it extra soft!
They have a huge amount of flavors to try, even offering a flavor guide to help you choose! Try out the unicorn poop flavor for a fun treat for the kids, create your own bundle, or grab one of their many packaged assortments!
You can buy Taffy Shop candy either online through their site or via Amazon.
