Cousin's Candy Shops

We began our salt water taffy making operation in 1992 and we're told ours in the very best! We make hundreds of pounds each day and each piece is individually wrapped by our dedicated workers. It flies out the door and is always the freshest and the softest. We guarantee it!

In addition, we have many wonderful and varied flavors of fudge, old fashioned candies that remind you of your childhood, licorices for the licorice lover's of the world and sugar-free varieties as well. If you don't see what you're looking for on our web pages, give us a call at our toll-free number. We have over 300 varieties in our shops and chances are we have it and can ship it off to you right away!

Cousin's Candy Shops are located in State Historic Parks in Virginia City, Montana and Old Town, San Diego. Virginia City is the original shop and has been there since 1970. The Old Town shop has been operating since 1999.

Both parks represent the famous Old West mining, gold rush era of the 1800's. Our wonderful confectionery shops represent this time period, and in fact, when you enter our doors, you'll swear you've gone back in time. Our workers wear period clothing and offer you samples of taffy right off the old fashion puller or, perhaps, you'd like to sample a delicious piece of our homemade fudge.

The Virginia City shop has the original oak shelving and tin ceiling. Jars of the freshest candy are located in an old, covered chuck wagon pictured above. When we opened our shop in Old Town, we replicated the shelving and covered wagon exactly. Not only do we have great candy and a wonderful selection, Cousin's is just a fun place to visit with the entire family.
