Literary notes about taffy (AI summary)

In certain literary passages, “taffy” emerges not merely as a confection but as a vivid color reminiscent of its sweet, caramelized hues. Authors evoke this hue by pairing it with descriptors that call to mind warm, inviting tones—imagine the soft, mellow glow of “Lemon Cream Taffy” [1] or the gentle, understated brightness of “Cream Taffy” [2]. Such usage transforms “taffy” into a sensory detail that enriches the narrative, hinting at both the flavor of the treat and an associated visual warmth, while later mentions like “Molasses Taffy” [3] suggest deeper, more complex shades, underlining its versatility as a color that paints both mood and memory.
