Product Details
As far as the name, legend has it that salt water taffy moniker came from an Atlantic City store owner named David Bradley. In 1883, a major storm caused the tide to rise and flood his store, thoroughly soaking his candy supply with Atlantic Ocean water. When a young girl came into the store asking for taffy Bradley offered her some of what he jokingly called his new salt water taffy. The girl loved the treat so much that she shared some with her friends. It wasn’t long before just about everyone was referring to taffy as salt water taffy.

Holidays are long gone and need more goodies!
I ordered a few things but the salt water taffy made a big hit even around the holidays. Had fun and they were good. It's been years since I have been to Calefs, so glad I can order online.

Salt water taffy!
WOW, this is so great! I remember watching them make salt water taffy at York Beach in Maine. I don't think they're there anymore. They taste so good and I'm sure these will. Saving for the holidays so haven't tried them yet.

Too sweet
This taffy was a little too sweet. Also, would love to see more flavors.
On the other hand, the ordering and shipping process was outstanding!

So Thrilled!
I got a sudden urge for New England salt water taffy, and I'm so glad I found Calefs! The order came quickly without any issue. So great (and dangerous) to know they're a resource for my taffy needs. :)

Salt Water Taffy
I needed the New England Old Fashioned Salt Water Taffy and luckily Calef’s had it and was the only place I could find it this time of year. It arrived quickly, in perfect condition and with a little handwritten thank you note. An awesome and the best taffy!
