Laffy Taffy

The name "Laffy Taffy" relates to both the taffy's texture and its personification of silliness: On the outside of each wrapper, brief, question-and-answer-style jokes are printed, such as "What do you call a cow with no legs? - Ground beef."   These jokes are typically submitted by children, who are acknowledged on the wrapper.

Laffy Taffy is an American brand of taffy candies made by the Ferrara Candy Company, a Ferrero subsidiary.   Individually wrapped taffy rectangles in a variety of colors and fake fruit flavors, including banana, strawberry, green apple, grape, blueberry, watermelon, blue raspberry, and cherry, weigh around 45 grams (1.6 oz). Caramel apple, coconut, strawberries & cream, apple crisp, chocolate mousse, pumpkin doughnut, pineapple, guava, orange sorbet, and lemon raspberry are among the most unusual flavors.

A whole box of Milk Duds is the only thing better than a packet of them! Each caramel ball is encased in a rich sweet chocolate coating and is a veritable pleasure. The cocoa-rich chocolate formula is a tense prelude to a weighty, tense caramelly interlude that you can truly sink your teeth into.

The retro-cool packaging of the Good & Plenty licorice theatre box draws your attention before urging you to take it as your own and start nibbling!

The soft and chewy candy is perfect for any movie marathon, snack session, or baking adventure.

Sweetarts

Sunline Inc.'s CEO, Menlo F. Smith, developed the sweet and sour candies in 1962. To extend the market for the acidic taste sensation, the candy was produced utilizing the same basic recipe as the existing popular Pixy Stix and Lik-M-Aid (Fun Dip) brands. SweeTarts debuted in 1963 in the same flavors as Pixy Stix: cherry, grape, lemon, lime, and orange.

Sweetarts are the ultimate candy for sharing. Everyone has a preferred flavor, making them enjoyable to trade.

It’s well known that people make purchase decisions based on emotions and when we come across a well-loved candy treat that brings up good memories we can’t help but buy it, enjoy it and tell people a story about the experience, and where we got the retro candy that created it.

This is how retro candy can make your store stand out from the competition.
