Legentd has it that salt water taffy was invented by an Atlantic City candy shop owner named David Bradley whose boardwalk store was flooded in 1883. The next day, when a girl walked into the store and asked for taffy, Bradley sarcastically referred to it as \"salt water taffy.\" The name caught on and, ever since then, salt water taffy has been sold on the New Jersey boardwalk. Salt water taffy doesn't contain any salt water (and not much salt or water either).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"making-salt-water-taffy\"\u003eMaking Salt Water Taffy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first step is melting all of the ingredients together and heating them until they reach 250-270 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature has a major impact on the texture of the taffy. The candy is chewier at lower temperatures and brittle at higher temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the salt water taffy reaches an ideal temperature, the process of pulling and stretching the taffy beings. Traditionally, the soft taffy is hung on metal hooks, usually in 15-20 lb batches, and pulled by hand.  Today, it’s more common to see the pulling done by machines. The more the salt water taffy gets pulled and stretched, the less sticky the taffy becomes because it’s exposed to air. When the salt water taffy is ready to be cut, it’s shaped on a marble countertop and cut with greased scissors.  Then, it’s ready to be enjoyed!\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"new-assorted-salt-water-taffy","title":"Assorted Salt Water Taffy","description":"\u003cp\u003eEnjoy the best of the boardwalk with our Assorted Salt Water Taffy, now featuring all-new, individually wrapped candies in a variety of bright colors.
