History of AirHeads Taffy

AirHeads are a chewy taffy-like candy that you can pull, squish, and mold into crazy shapes. Whoever said food can’t be fun? These delicious confections first bounced on the radar of candy lovers everywhere in 1986, when they were created by Perfetti Van Melle, a Dutch-Italian company with a division in Kentucky. Since then, they’ve grown into one of the nation’s leading taffy treats to enjoy at any time of the day. Candy Warehouse carries a wide selection of AirHeads candy, so you can find every kind of treat you need to beat those mid-afternoon blues.

Fun Facts About AirHeads

The creator of AirHeads knew that for a name to stick around and do so quickly, it had to sound familiar and catchy. He went home and asked his sons this question: “What do you call a friend who did something silly?” Many responses were thrown out, but Airheads is the name that stuck. He then doodled the name & the balloon face on his notepad and later worked with Whitaker and Associates of Cincinnati Ohio to refine the sketch. Airheads is now one of the largest non-chocolate confections in North America.
