It’s that time of year again—when a little furry meteorologist emerges to either bless us with an early spring or doom us to six more weeks of winter. But for many of us, Groundhog Day instantly brings to mind one thing: Bill Murray stuck in a time loop.
So why not turn this quirky holiday into a sweet tradition of your own? Enter: Groundhog Day salt water taffy — our limited-edition, seasonal candy collection that makes February feel a little more festive with chewy, flavorful bites of joy.
Before the Hollywood hype, Groundhog Day was a folk tradition with roots in Candlemas and Pennsylvania Dutch superstition. The idea? If the groundhog sees his shadow on February 2, we get six more weeks of winter. If not, spring comes early.
Regardless of what Punxsutawney Phil predicts, we say: celebrate either way—with festive saltwater taffy treats in bright seasonal colors and one-of-a-kind holiday flavors.
Let’s face it, we could all use something cheerful in the heart of winter. That’s where holiday saltwater taffy flavors shine. Think mint chocolate, vanilla custard, caramel swirl, or even citrusy bursts of lemon to channel spring vibes.
Want a personalized bag of sweet cheer? Use our Custom Taffy Mix tool to build your own combo of seasonal saltwater taffy flavors—made just for you.
Available for a limited time, our Groundhog Day saltwater taffy features a hand-picked assortment that’s equal parts winter comfort and spring hope. It’s the perfect edible centerpiece for a February celebration—or a snack while rewatching the movie (again).

Small rituals—like festive candy treats—can transform an odd little tradition into a fun, family-friendly celebration featuring cheerful saltwater taffy.
The 1993 film Groundhog Day became a pop culture staple. It redefined the holiday for many, making it more about reflection and humor than weather predictions.
You’re not alone! Many turn it into a mid-winter pick-me-up by sharing limited edition saltwater taffy and other sweets with friends or coworkers.
Choose citrus or fruity saltwater taffy, bring out the bright colors, and create your own party vibe—even if Punxsutawney Phil predicts six more weeks of cold.
There’s no wrong way to celebrate February 2. Whether you’re baking, decorating, or just eating seasonal saltwater taffy, this under-the-radar holiday deserves a spot in your seasonal routine.
