Smoky Mountain Candy Makers – Pigeon Forge Candy Shop Since 1973
Smoky Mountain Candy Makers has been crafting delicious, old-fashioned candy since 1973. If you haven’t tried our famous taffy yet, now’s the perfect time—order online and taste a true Smoky Mountain tradition!
The Sweetest Mountain Tradition
Our taffy is wrapped the old-fashioned way using a vintage wrapping machine built in 1940. These machines haven’t changed much since they were first introduced at the turn of the century—and watching them in action is something truly special.
Each piece of taffy is carefully sliced, wrapped in wax paper, and twisted closed right before your eyes. It’s a mesmerizing process that guests often stop to watch for minutes… or even hours!
A Family Tradition Since 1973
In 1973, Howard Reagan Sr. set out to build something of his own in the growing tourism town of Pigeon Forge. With determination and everything he had on the line, he started Smoky Mountain Candy Makers.
Over the years, he passed down his knowledge and passion for candy making to his three children—Howard Jr., Mary, and Heath.
Today, Howard’s three children Howard Jr., Mary, Heath and grandson Caleb are keeping the family tradition alive with the help from our dedicated team of candy makers, and candy hosts.
