HUGE Mehlenbacher's Taffy Review and Giveway $200.50 Total Value *1 Grand Prize and 10 Runner Up Prizes - featured in Rachael Ray's Everyday Magazine and Martha Stewart

Remember the days gone by?

The simple pleasures and Handmade treats....

The pride and workmanship put into each and every product produced....

The excitement and sparkle in a child's eyes when they were given a VERY Special Treat...

I have recently found a company that makes me feel like I have stepped back in time!

....Back in time to the early 1900's......

MEHLENBACHER'S TAFFY

They are proud of their hand pulled and artisan crafted with love and care Taffy (And it shows as you can see by this very colorful photo).

Mehlenbacher's Taffy uses only the finest, natural ingredients including grade A butter.  NO preservatives are use!

The beautiful taffy is made in small batches, and is truly an "artisan" taffy.

It's still pulled and packaged by hand and flavored with simple methods just like it was over 100 years ago.

You won't find other mass produced taffy with Mehlenbacher's attention to detail.



I was so honored Mehlenbacher's Taffy sent me an assortment of taffy to sample (and love), review and giveaway with a HUGE group of my bloggy friends...watch for details below!  Believe it or not....look at all this taffy and it is not all the flavors Mehlenbacher's make.  Wow!

First of all did you know that Mehlenbacher's was just featured in one of my favorite magazines in the August 2011 - Everyday with Rachael Ray, in her Fun Favorites Eats.  In my book Rachael Ray has excellent taste...so what does that say about this amazing artisan taffy? (Also featured more than one by Martha Stewart)

Mehlenbacher's makes over 50 different flavors and are developing new ones all the time!  Amazing.  They even create seasonal flavors like Cranberry, Wintergreen, Brown Sugar, Pumpkin Spice, Eggnog, Caramel Apple and Maple.

They have gotten creative with their MIXER line with flavors combinations like Raspberry Lemonade, Limeade (lemon lime), Neapolitan (chocolate, strawberry and vanilla), and Berry Blast just to name a few.  I had the chance to try the Raspberry Lemonade and it was so refreshing, and chewy, and silky, and sticky, and flavorful, and stretchy, and shiny with each and every bite and trust me there is a LOT to bite on.....look at how BIG each stick is....

Each stick of Mehlenbacher's Taffy is HUGE - over 5 inches and 3/4 of an inch in diameter of chewy goodness. 

Another line of Taffy is Cheesecake.  Don't turn your nose up, until you try this hand made confection.  The Key Lime Cheesecake was the best.  It had the texture and feel of taffy...but it you were to close your eyes, and focus on the flavor, you would think you had a piece of Key Lime Cheesecake in your mouth.  Mehlenbacher's you have done us candy lovers a great service....I will never be able to enjoy another piece of taffy every again, without wishing it was yours.

I want to make sure to mention Mehlenbacher's even created six new flavors this year.

Iced Coffee...Cinnamon Roll...Pineapple...Huckleberry...Cotton Candy...Key Lime
