We’ve crunched the numbers, and here are Cottage Country’s Most Popular Candies from 2024! Let’s start the list with candy number ten.
#10 – Candy Corn
You might be surprised to see this hotly contested treat on our Most Popular List, but one thing’s for sure–Candy Corn fans know how to stock up!
This creamy, yellow, orange and white candy features a melt-in-your-mouth texture. Some people may argue that the sweetness and texture of this candy are too much for their taste buds, but that just leaves more for us!
#9 – Salt Water Taffy
Salt Water Taffy is a nostalgic treat for many, evoking sweet memories of summer. Legend has it that Salt Water Taffy got its name after a seaside candy shop was flooded with seawater, but there is no actual saltwater in this candy!
