The Estes Park Taffy Company

Delicious and perfectly soft taffy in a plethora of flavors! So soft it won’t rip out any dental work you’ve had done unlike some other more traditional old fashioned salt water taffy. A must stop when in Estes Park. The cherry is my favorite!

Absolutely irresistible! You will be hard pressed to find better taffy than this anywhere! Friends have challenged me for two years, but they always change their minds once they’ve had this heavenly taffy. First, it is so so fresh — it melts in your mouth, instead of getting stuck in your teeth! Second, they are always coming up with new, fun flavors, and they have at least 25 on rotation at any given time. Third, the staff is always lovely and smiley.

Ok, I finally tried it. I put it off because this place looks just a little too «perfect» as an «original» taffy store in a very touristy town… but I caved in today and tried them out and WOW. I see now that I have never had decent taffy before, and have missed out all these years. The caramel peanut butter and pecan ones are my favorites so far, but I grabbed a bunch of flavors to sample and have only tried a few so far… But I have tried enough to give them 5 stars already! If you are at all tempted to try them, go ahead and try it. If nothing else, poke your head in and see what they have for the free sample. :)

Amazing taffy! Do not pass on anything with caramel. Delicious! You will want to go back very soon.

It is so sad to see this store copying off the 80 year history and reputation
of The Taffy Shop. This guy at The Taffy Company has copied off of The
original Taffy Shop simply to confuse people.
He purchased two locations on either side of The original Taffy Shop.
His address is 121 E. Elkhorn Avenue. The Taffy Shop is 121 W. Elkhorn.
He has a pulley in the window and when I asked «were is it made»
I was told «Somewhere in Larimer County». His box design, coloring and
logo is such a take off of the true taffy shop. This is truly a blatant copy
and can be so confusing for people thinking they are going to the store
that for 80 years has been known for taffy in Estes Park.
I cannot imagine he has a conscious. The one thing he cannot copy is
the quality of the product at The Taffy Shop. The taffy is made fresh
everyday there. What you see being pulled in the window is the real
stuff. People please if you want the taffy that has been serving Estes Park
for 80 years remember to go to:
THE TAFFY SHOP AT 121 WEST ELKHORN AVENUE.

Best taffy I’ve ever had, great flavors and very friendly staff.

Poor imitation. These people are capitalizing on the name and reputation of the much better taffy store at 121 WEST Elkhorn. We ended up here by mistake but figured it out after tasting the taffy and wondering why the place had gotten so many good reviews. They’re using a similar name and even put a taffy machine in the window to try and look like the original /​highly rated place, so somewhat dishonest. Go for the original at 121 WEST Elkhorn.

Would never ever visit this business! We’ve been coming to Estes Park for over 40 years and my parents have been coming here even longer and the ORIGINAL store called THE TAFFY SHOP has been in town for 80 years. Sad that businesses like The Estes Park Taffy shop are trying to copy and take away from the original taffy shop and take away something that is a part of history and tradition here in Estes.

If you like taffy, come here. They have lots of cool flavors like blueberry cheesecake. They also have a taffy making machine in the window, which I thought was pretty cool.

This little town loves their taffy, and so do I! We decided to stop in here and take a peek, and I ended up walking out with a bag half full of taffy.
They have tons of flavors to choose from. Coffee, Caramel Apple, Tiramisu, Cherry, you name it. Bins and bins of taffy everywhere! You can choose your mix and how much you want, and they just charge you based on weight. I just got a few pieces of most of the flavors, threw them in the bag, and braced myself for a cavity. The taffy was fresh and flavorful, but tasted natural at the same time.
Cute little shop with friendly staff and tasty treats!

My husband and I did a little weekend trip to Estes Park, and being Colorado natives, we know a bit about Estes Park’s tourist sites. However, we hadn’t tried a lot of the candy stores, and I was craving taffy. I looked up reviews on Unilocal,and two stores were rated highest: Estes Park Taffy Company and the Taffy Shop. The Taffy Shop is the «original» taffy store in Estes, with the longest history. We decided to get bags from both stores and compare. My husband helped me with a blind taste test: each store had a lemon, molasses, vanilla, and salted caramel. 3 out of 4 times, I chose Estes Park Taffy Company’s taffy. Their taffy is fresh, light, airy, not overly chewy, but still satisfyingly tacky. They also have a larger selection than other candy stores, with fun flavors, and you pay everything by weight, so you can get as much or as little of each flavor as you like. We LOVED the watermelon flavor! Best taffy I’ve ever had.

I was given an assortment of taffy as a gift. It was amazing! Fresh flavors and satiny smooth. I want more!!!

The best taffy. Flavors are robust yet taste natural. Taffy is always fresh. High quality. I wish I could order from their website, but you can’t. I phone in an order about three times a year until I get back to Estes Park for vacation. The taffy makes a great gift for friends and I have gotten many hooked on this stuff! I especially like banana, chocolate, lemon, molasses, key lime, and cinnamon. They have a lot of combo Flavors too, Ike strawberry-​banana. And special Flavors like blueberry cheesecake and cotton candy.

Never actually been here but love the taffys my sister brought me from Colorado. So good !!

personally I don’t like taffy but the my family does. everytime we are in town we stop in here and grab a bag. it must be good as the bag only last a day between 3 people so I give it 4 stars based on the empty bag

Best place for taffy in Estes Park! They not only have the biggest selection, and store, but the taffy is BOMB! We were there for 3 days and made sure to go each day! Brought some home for friends and family and they now know how amazing fresh taffy is!
There are tons of candy shops on Estes and a hundred places to spend your money! Thai should be a first stop for you!
If you want to mail me some I’ll gladly play double… lol!

The store had a peppy and helpful staff and a good assortment of flavors — blueberry cheesecake, cherry cola, watermelon, cotton candy with all of the usual suspects. I liked that you could pick and choose your pieces which are sold by weight. You can choose bags or boxes and there was no pressure on what to purchase. Pretty smooth too.

Very extensive selection. All homemade. Family owned. Staff is very friendly. I am so excited to eat what I bought. Never spent $ 20 of a box of taffy, but it’s completely worth it.

The taffy was melt in your mouth good. I have no idea what other taffy companies are doing but they should take a page from this store.

Ever notice that every tourist town claims to specialize in taffy? When my friend mentioned that Colorado is known for its taffy, I rolled my eyes. Then I came here and was too busy enjoying the taffy to roll my eyes. The best taffy I’ve ever had. Other than laffy taffy as a kid, I don’t enjoy taffy. I usually find taffy to be too hard but this place makes it very soft! They offered one sample per customer. It was pineapple and delicious. I didn’t enjoy all the flavors I purchased as much I did the pineapple but the texture is still perfect. This place opened a year ago so support a new business. Enjoy.
