Taffy is a type of chewy candy. Taffy is made by stretching or pulling a sticky mass of boiled sugar, butter, flavorings, and coloring until fluffy. When this process is complete, the taffy is cut into small pastel-colored pieces and wrapped in wax paper to keep it soft. It usually has a fruity flavor, but other flavors are common as well.
Salt water taffy was a noted invention of Atlantic City, New Jersey and became a common souvenir of many coastal resort towns.
Taffy is made primarily from corn syrup, glycerin and butter. The 'pulling' process, which makes the candy lighter and chewier, consists of stretching out the mixture, folding it over and stretching it out again.
