Sweet Candy Company

Sweet Candy Company is a family-owned and operated American candy manufacturer founded in 1892 by Leon Sweet in Portland, Oregon. The company relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1900, where it merged several small specialty stores into one general manufacturing operation. Today it remains family-owned, with the third, fourth, and fifth generations actively involved in daily operations. The company distributes more than 250 quality candy items nationally and internationally in bulk, bags, and boxes, and is known for its quality candy and world-class customer service. Sweet Candy Company's product range includes salt water taffy, chocolate covered jelly sticks, penny candy such as fruit sours, cinnamon bears, and a variety of taffy flavors. The company offers over 30 taffy flavors and provides customization through its Taffy Mixer tool, allowing customers to mix and match up to three flavors. Products are sold through the company's website and other retail channels, with options for gifts, bundles, and corporate gifts. The company emphasizes non-GMO and organic candy options in its lineup. In 1999, Sweet Candy Company moved into a state-of-the-art 180,000 square foot manufacturing and distribution facility located three miles south of the Salt Lake International Airport. The company continues to innovate and automate its production while maintaining its heritage as a maker of nostalgic American candies. Its website features a range of products including All-American Taffy, Assorted Taffy, State Fair Taffy, Tart 'N Tangy Taffy, Cinnamon Bears, and various sours, with prices and customer reviews displayed.

Sweet Candy Company was founded in 1892 by Leon Sweet in Portland, Oregon. The early varieties Leon offered for sale had two distinguishing characteristics: they were made mostly by hand, and people loved them. Customers loved Sweet's candies back then for the same reason they love them today—quality. In 1900, Leon moved the operation from Portland, Oregon to Salt Lake City, Utah. Upon relocation, he merged several small specialty stores into one general manufacturing company. Over the years, Sweet's has become more innovative and more automated, embracing technology to create better and even more delicious products. In 1999, the Sweet Candy Company moved into a state-of-the-art, 180,000 square foot manufacturing and distribution facility located three miles south of the Salt Lake International Airport. The company is still family-owned and operated, with the third, fourth, and fifth generations of the family actively involved in daily operations. Sweet's distributes more than 250 quality candy items nationally and internationally—in bulk, bags, and boxes. Sweet's is still known for its quality candy and world-class customer service.
