ABBA-ZABA












Type: Taffy with peanut butter filling
Manufacture: Annabelle's
Origin: U.S.A
Purchase from Walgreen's at Divisadero St, San Francisco


The taffy is chewy and hard. The peanut butter is creamy and salty. Apple Taffy version has better flavour than the original. Surprisingly, the apple taffy is sour and compliments well with the saltiness of the peanut butter.

Abba-Zaba

Type: Chewy Taffy Peanut Butter Center
Origin: U.S.A
Manufacture :Annabelle Candy Co
Purchase from a Shell Gas Station Filmore St. San Francisco

My friend at work raved so much about this bar. I have tried other Annabelle's products and most of them turned to a disappointment for me. This hard to chewy, stuck to your gum taffy is unpleasant in every way. I don't like the flavour nor the uneasiness around my gum.

Type: Apple Taffy. Peanut Butter Center

Overall i don't like the texture but as for flavour, this one is the winner! I love the sourness from the apple and the saltiness from the peanut butter. It works wonderful well together.

Candy Corn Taffy


Type: Candy Corn Taffy
Origin:U.S.A.
Manufacture : Sweet Candy Company
Purchase from Walgreen's at Divisadero St, San Francisco
I found this bag of candy among the 75 % sale candy bin after the Halloween was over at Walgreen's. I have seen Hersey's kisses candy corn and Brach's candy corn but i have never seen candy corn taffy. Let me remind you! i do not like anything that stuck to my gum uncomfortably. So, i was pretty skeptical and quiet excited to how this taffy turned out. As i made my way to the cash register, i eagerly open the bag and took one to my mouth....
I was pleasantly surprised and actually enjoyed this candy. It has a shiny appearance, soft and flavourful. It taste more of a caramel flavour than candy corn.

Mary Jane Peanut Butter Kisses







Type: Chewy Peanut Butter Taffy
Origin: U.S.A
Manufacture : Necco
Purchase from Walgreen's at Divisadero St, San Francisco
I saw this bag of candy recently when i was shopping for Halloween but decided not to purchase it. This morning when i saw 'Mary Jane' again at Walgreen's, i just had to buy it. I can tell you this; i love anything with peanut. So when i saw the cute and smiley 'Mary Jane' on the package, i just could not resist. Further more, i have never seen anything on the black, orange and 'Mary Jane ' orange wax wrappers. Necco actually print the wax wrappers with picture of Mary Jane. How cool is that !!!
The taffy smells of roasted peanuts. I just cant stop smelling them! It is soft, chewy and tasty. I love how the peanut butter in the middle of the taffy sort off act like a glue that hold them together. And of course, they are darn good!
