Laffy Taffy
Laffy Taffy is a soft, fruity, chewy candy known for its iconic mini and stretchy, tangy bars. The brand also offers other forms of candy, including ropes and bites, making it a popular choice for candy enthusiasts.
What sets Laffy Taffy apart from other candies is the fact that each piece of candy comes with its own silly joke or pun printed on the wrapper.
The history of Laffy Taffy can be traced back to the 1970s when it was first introduced by the Beich’s Candy Company, which had been in operation since 1893. The candy was called "Beich’s Caramels," the flavor was printed on each label.
However, the name eventually changed to "Laffy Taffy," which has stuck ever since. The Ferrara Candy Company, a subsidiary of Ferrero, currently produces Laffy Taffy in various flavors and forms, including classic bars, minis, ropes, and bites. Ferrara Candy Company acquired the rights to Laffy Taffy from Nestle in 2018.
Laffy Taffy comes in several classic flavors, including banana, cherry, grape, sour apple, wild blue raspberry, and strawberry.
There have also been limited edition flavors and variations, such as Sparkle Cherry. The candy's unique combination of fruity flavors and its stretchy, chewy texture has made it a favorite among candy lovers of all ages.
