This taffy has a satisfying tang that hits the tongue just before the sweetness. My mother-in-law gave me the recipe years ago. It takes time to wrap all the little candies, but the kids can help. It's a great way to involve them in the kitchen. -Christine Olson, Horse Creek, California

I'm definitely going to try this recipe again. I think it would be great with other citrus fruits, like lemon or grapefruit.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my taffy turned out grainy. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

I'm not a huge fan of orange candy, but this recipe was surprisingly good! The taffy was chewy and flavorful, and the orange flavor was just right.

I followed the recipe exactly and the taffy turned out too hard. I think I needed to cook it for a shorter amount of time.

This orange taffy recipe was a delight! The candy turned out perfectly, with a chewy texture and a sweet, citrusy flavor. I loved the addition of orange zest, which really made the orange flavor pop.
