Great selection of candy. I got some salt water Taffy as well as some jelly belly’s. Both are self serve with the Jelly belly’s coming out of a dispenser and the taffy in boxes that you just grab with your hands. (I’ll admit maybe not exactly the best idea but it is what the owners are going with) The taffy tastes wonderful. I got a handful of various flavors and they have an entire wall dedicated to them. A few of them really stuck to the wrapper and a few came out easy. The Jelly Belly tastes just like an average Jelly Belly Jelly bean. I got some flavors that you don’t normally get at the “big box” stores such as the soda flavors and a Crispy Kreame donut flavors plus this one that has a glossy look to it. Over all a great place to satisfy your sugar cravings.

Visited during the rod run, so it was very busy. Staff seemed harried but still were cordial. Salt water taffy is a rip off. Worst I've ever tried. It's super sticky (not a genuine taffy recipe) and super small. Whatever the "flavor" is supposed to be, it's flavorless. There's more wrapper than taffy. You can eat the wrapper and throw away the taffy and not even notice the difference. They have a lot of retro candy and a good selection of chocolates. Nice selection.

I always look forward to finding a candy shop with great products. You will find a large selection of salt water taffy, chocolates, fudge, and novelty candy such as chocolate twinkies. If you stop in for taffy, the large selection of candy will tempt you. A great place to experience homemade candy and salt water taffy. Located in a bright yellow building on Pacific Avenue and a short distance from the Bolstad Beach Approach and the Arch in Long Beach.
