Just Taffy

The fudge is sweet, but the lady owner behind the counter isn’t! This lady makes makes Charlie Sheen seem normal. I purchased ½ pound of fudge for a gift, but when I asked if I could have a box, she said they didn’t have enough money, and I hadn’t bought enough fudge. She was complaining about the hair salon next door, and the hair balls in the drain, how they were there for the tourists, but they didn’t deserve them anymore. We bought another piece of fudge for ourselves, and when we got it out to share, she said, You’re fingering it?” They will be there until September, and I know why… she drives everyone away!

My Missouri family and I stumbled upon this little store in hopes of finding fun treats for us and the dogs. This little store was kinda cute but I actually liked the fact that it looked oldish?.. I don’t know. Anyways, the taffy seems homemade and there’s so many flavors and treats to choose from! I loved the lemon and butterscotch taffy and can’t wait to try more eventually! Finally as we were leaving the owner gave us a bag of goodies for the doggies for all the stuff we bought! She called it «Good Karma» and I believe it! Great little place to check out if you just want something to munch on.

A friend and I stumbled on this place and thought we would check it out. We both love taffy so that’s a good start. I will have to say that I grew up in an area of the country where fudge and taffy stores are on every corner.
PROS
*fresh taffy. Unwrapped a piece and it was soft and chewy
*different and good flavors of fudge; pumpkin crème, which was so yummy
CONS
*The store needs a little updating; clean but not much around
*Honestly unsure if the fudge and taffy are made in store. I’m used to there being a big marble top table in the store showing how the fudge is made, etc.
*although the taffy was fresh, it’s nothing special. I prefer good strong flavors.
*the owners weren’t rude. maybe just tired. (It was Santacalgon days)
All in all… for MO… this is a good place to find taffy and fudge. For me though, I’ve personally had better.

This place has got the best taffy I’ve ever had. It doesn’t have all the BS that store-​bought taffy has, it tastes great, it chews great, it’s healthier… as far as taffy goes… it’s just better in general. I don’t make it in here very often because I’m rarely on the square but I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for delicious taffy at great prices.

Have you ever seen a crack addict and the way they’ll do anything for some crack? Well, meet my dog. He’s pretty much like a crack addict when it comes to the doggy snacks at Just Taffy.
Ok, so this place isn’t really a dog store at all. It’s actually a candy store where they make their own taffy. They also have cotton candy and other type of sweet treats. There’s also an odd selection of honeys from up north. The space feels big and empty overall and I’m not sure why they don’t add some shelving up the middle so they can sell more stuff.
Anyway, the guy that runs this place also works for a place that makes doggy snacks. He gets extra and brings them in here and offers them for free. Places like Three Dog Bakery are great but my dog seriously goes gaga nuts over the snacks from here. I’m sure he’d prostitute himself for a «corn» or «carrot» from this store. I’ve never seen him so willing to do just about anything for a snack.
I always feel bad because I don’t tend to go to candy stores since I don’t eat that stuff much at all. I’ll get a drink or something and put down a few extra dollars for the doggy snacks.
If you do Independence Sq movie night, stop by and get a snack to munch on while watching your movie.
