We've been stopping by Dolle's for decades and their selection and excellent quality have never varied. We loved the chocolate maple creams, orange creams, and raspberry creams in both milk and dark chocolate varieties as well as their chocolate covered toffees and their fudge. The caramel corn is so light and delicious. The staff at this location work their butts off when the store fills up with customers in the evening. The candies make such a lovely after dinner sweet and we bought five or so pieces at a time to eat them when fresh. So yummy! read more

This Dolle's is super! I really enjoy their Peppermint and Peanut Butter Taffy. I first got Dolle's over a year ago, and it was just perfect. But then one time I got some peppermint taffies and they were spearmint, not peppermint, but they still had a red line, not a green one. I was kind of upset about that, but I think it was just an accident. I haven't gone too many times since, but the last time I went to Dolle's, however, the taffies were really hard and the Peanut Butter Kiss Taffies tasted very weird and dusty, so bad that I spit it out and got rid of the rest. I think it's just a hit or miss though. I really like the old candy store vibe, and it smells really good and sweet in there. Nonetheless, I really like this store and I definitely recommend stopping by sometime! read more

Lots of great an options to choose from. I am particularly a fan of the Turtles and their fudge. Yum!

We stopped in to Dollie's Candyland to pick up some saltwater taffy and fudge while visiting Rehoboth Beach. I love all the flavors they offer and the candy was freshly made even in the off season. read more

A Candy shop 100 year old tradition. Salt water taffy, many flavors available. Consistency in flavors & quality is what brings back the nostalgia back to you. Service can be slowish, because of all the choices & the long time customer take in decision. Shop is clean & well organized. read more

Great candy store! The taffy is great, but inconsistent. The peanut butter chocolate flavor varies greatly in taste depending on how much peanut butter is inside. They are oddly not uniform?! Love the untraditional tubular shape instead of the usual chunks you get everywhere else. Highly recommend trying it! read more

I've never had peanut caramel popcorn. I had a sample and I got a small tub. The popcorn was warm and had roasted peanuts. Very addicting. The Chicago style popcorn was also my favorite, perfect combination of sweet and salty. The caramel wasn't overwhelmingly sweet. read more

A Delaware beach staple! Love the variety of flavors they offer from the popcorn and caramel corns to the multiple options of taffy. They even have multiple types of fudge and chocolate goodies. read more

Literally a landmark at the Delaware shore it is the first shop you encounter as you come off the boardwalk and they sell fine chocolate, flavored popcorn and saltwater taffy. The store comes across as very clean and tidy, almost putting it at odds with the town outside their door but it gives a feeling of quality. So why did I give this only 3 stars? Cost. Yes, I know fine chocolates are expensive but the cheapest they have for popcorn is $11 and they can't say it's the ingredients because it is the same cost no matter what style you get. So, there is the vague feeling of getting taken just because it's a holiday spot and this can slightly sour the experience. read more

So this is one of those tourist traps that's worth visiting. As a child, my parents would always bring boxes of taffy home and tons of sweets. However through the years I would always go to their competitors CK... and this time I was like, its time to revisit this place. I love their fudge is amazing like 10x better than the Amish markets. I love their caramel popcorn too. Always great customer service. This definitely a must see before you end your beach trip, grab a couple of boxes of salt water taffy and a bucket caramel popcorn. read more

The selection was eh. The clerk was not friendly and followed us around the store. When we got home and tasted the taffy, it was eh. Not fresh. I guess they were better in their hay day. read more

While I know nothing about taffy, I am somewhat of a popcorn expert. I am certain I could eat my bodyweight in their kettlecorn. Yes. Yes, I certainly could. You should stop by and try some candy or popcorn. Unless you're keto, then, well ... I don't really don't know what you should do on the boardwalk. Drive to Hickman's for some 70/30 and make a burger when you get home? Maybe? Their popcorn and confections are UNIMPEACHABLE! Try it, you'll like it. read more

covid review: pricy taffy, but well worth it. i am from jersey and we bring th taffy game, but i think i might like Dolle's better. Its smoother. also, their sweet ice tea is AMAZING! almost as good as a glass that youll find in the south. read more

A local institution known for sweet treats along Rehoboth's iconic boardwalk. Dolle's serves candies and fudge but is likely most popular for its caramel corn. I LOVE caramel corn though I found the Dolle's version a bit small, not as large and 'fluffy' as some of the more commercial caramel corn versions out there. Still, it was a nice stop. A great way to spend an afternoon on the boardwalk if you're not up for sitting on the beach or standing in an arcade is grabbing a box of caramel corn from this place and finding a bench to sit and people watch. Service was less than friendly, but what're ya gonna do? The kids working there aren't likely the types to practice iconic customer service. For that, I have to deduct a star. read more

My trip to Rehoboth is never complete until I snag a bucket of Caramel Corn for my grandparents and today was no exception! I got the medium size bucket which runs about $8.50, but you can also get your salt water taffy and regular popcorn fix here as well. If you happen to be in the area, it's worth a grabbing a bucket to try out! I love their caramel corn and it's a must have if I happen to be stopping in/through Rehoboth! read more

Oh yum. So yum. My BF went in all opposed to salt water taffy. Apparently, the West Coast salt water taffy he experienced was some serious ick. But I went in with glorious childhood memories of East Coast salt water taffy. So almost immediately after setting foot on the boardwalk, we headed into this shop. You could tell they had just opened. They were still putting out all the taffy baskets. So many flavors to choose from! Thankfully, you can create your own bag. So I went about gathering two of each kind (yes, like Noah's Ark). And I wound up with a wonderous mix tasty salt water taffy - and for less than $3! From molasses to pina colada to lemon to strawberry. Every piece was perfection in my mouth. And my BF is now officially a fan of salt water taffy. If you are anywhere in the area, get in here for a delicious taffy treat. read more

I have never, ever, left Rehoboth Beach without a trip to Dolle's. EVER! I love taffy (ask my dentist!) and this place makes some of the best. You even have a choice of the classic "candy-shaped" taffy, or the long taffy. There are other sweet treats in there as well, but no one does taffy better than Dolle's! The shop offers upwards of 20 flavors; some classic, other a bit daring (I think they had some kind of spicy taffy when I was there last). I like the chocolate and the chocolate peanut butter flavors myself, but feel free to try them all and pick your favorite. The prices are reasonable and there's bound to be something for everyone. If you haven't paid a visit to Dolle's yet, what are you waiting for? read more

We visited Dolles Fudge on the Rehobeach Beach Boardwalk when we visited Rehboth Beach, DE in April 2017. They have a large selection of fudge, as well as other sweet candies, such as toffees. The service was also excellent - the person working there was very friendly and chatted with us and was interested in knowing where we were visiting from and how long we'd been married. It was very friendly and pleasant. I got vanilla fudge. While I liked the texture of the fudge, I didn't love the taste, for some reason. I think I may have just gotten a bad piece of fudge, so I would definitely still love to visit Dolles' Fudge / Candyland in the future whenever I visit Rehoboth Beach, DE again. read more

I know being in the middle of Covid and people visiting from out of town you would expect some gratitude to only get treated like utter crap by extremely rude people that make it a point to treat you like dirt. For some reason shops and restaurants in Rehoboth are ungrateful like this one completely disgusting and bad behavior I should have purchased the taffy for 5 boxes for 10.00 in Virginia Beach where I would of got a thank you instead of an attitude! Not happy with the people that work in rehoboth and there gratitude to visitors! read more

My father's from Rehoboth so every couple of years, we all come up here for a week or so and this might be one of my favorite places to go. It's like a beacon of light at the end of the boardwalk lol Whether it be childhood memories of getting a little box of assorted saltwater taffy to take home on the plane or the freakin' deliciousness that is the thin mint fudge I get now, there is something about this place that puts the biggest smile on my face whenever I think of it. read more

Dolle's Candyland - The greatest view ever. - Candy Stores Near Me - Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

If you want the world's best salt water taffy, Dolles by the sea on the Rehobeth Beach boardwalk is it! This is the taste of my childhood summers vacationing here at my grandparents beach cottage in Rehobeth... where every day was better than the last. The boardwalk visits were never complete until we had salt water taffy from Dolles. Every flavor, so wonderful. I got some for my mom's birthday/Mother's Day surprise, she hasn't had it in years and loves it. Tom Ibach was SUPER helpful and so friendly and nice. Thanks Dolles - lots of happiness thanks to you! read more

So, I reviewed Go Fish! And Grotto, so let's complete the trifecta with Dolle's. They get 5 stars for the sign alone! A beacon of delight! We go for the candied popcorn, ut I was looking at photos on their FB feed, and I need to try more. The original old school. Love it! read more

Eating saltwater taffy on the Boardwalk might seem like a 1920s cliché, but there's a reason Dolle's has been on the beach for the past 85 years. Here's how you do it: walk up to the counter, give the girl a fiver, take your box of taffy and go somewhere to munch. End review. read more

Best. Caramel. Corn. EVER! Also love the saltwater taffy. You're at the beach. How can you NOT get this stuff??? read more

My mom loves her taffy. I can't eat it anymore -- I've got too much expensive dental work in me teeth. So I got her some kiss taffy (weirdly $2 cheaper than the long kind). And I got me a huge bag of freshly-popped popcorn which was quite tasty and good. And literally lasted the rest of the trip. There are different prices for popcorn, depending on which flavor you order. Why? I don't know. This place is not quite the corporate conglomerate that Candy Kitchen is. This may be it's only location. I ordered from a window and I am not even sure if there is an inside part of the store. But it's old school and I like it :) read more

Very friendly service, and AWESOME taffy. A lot of different flavors to pick and choose from... I'm pretty sure I saw the long taffy's individually sold in baskets and were 75 cents each. Definitely worth a stop! read more

While visiting Rehoboth Beach with the family, my wife asks me to get her some salt water taffy, so where else is there to go but Dolle's Candyland. Upon going in, there is a HUGE selection of all types of candy and snacks (salt water taffy, fudge, caramel corn). When i go looking for the salt water taffy, i'm thinking... ok, i'll just find a box that has assorted flavors and i'll be out. Little did i know, there was a whole wall dedicated to salt water taffy and i could create my own bag. There was a HUGE selection of flavors to choose from. So instead of just getting a box, i ended up getting her over 2 lbs of salt water taffy with a bit of each flavor. Believe you me, she was surprised and excited! I'm not a big fan of sweets, but i gotta say, the salt water taffy is pretty damn good. This is a fantastic must stop by place when you visit Rehoboth Beach. SUGARRRRRR!!!!! read more

They have the best peanut butter taffy. Too bad they never have it. The 3rd time in a row that they were out of it, I said something. The guy said that couldn't be possible and that it was rare that they were out of it. I am now up to 5 times in a row when they were out of it. They try to send you around the corner onto the boardwalk into a store where you scoop out your own. It isn't any less expensive and you want me to do the work? The caramel corn is good. And I still haven't determined if this place and the Dolle's in Ocean City, MD are related. read more

I went there today for the first time and purchased a few different chocolates and milk choc fudge. It all looked wonderful in the showcases but what a disappointment. We aren't that picky but not impressed at all..all of the chocolates tasted the same..very dry and stale read more

Coming here is a must every time I come to rehoboth. I always pick up some fudge to snack on and take home. I got the chocolate pecan fudge, maple walnut, and chocolate marshmallow. All were super tasty and very rich. The prices are a bit high but it's worth it. I can't wait to come again next year! read more

I've been coming to Rehoboth Beach for decades, and Dolle's is a must stop every year. The taffy and mints are out of this world! You can even go inside the store and pick your own taffy flavors by the pound if you don't like there pre-packaged assortments. read more

It has been years since I have had salt water taffy. After walking past here I had to stop in and get some. You take a bag and pick the flavors you think you may like. When I got home I would say I liked the majority of them. Not all the flavors were to my taste. They were all nice and fresh. read more

Had a most excellent time at Dolles choosing from their well made merchandise. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Great saltwater taffy, even better caramel corn, and the fudge is pretty fantastic as well. A must-visit stop on the boardwalk every time!

Good taffy and the service was friendly and nice. Great snack for a fun day at the beach.

Dolle's caramel corn has been a staple for our family for decades. Get it with or without peanuts - it's a real treat!

I went this summer for the salt-water taffy. I heard such good things about it, and was highly disappointed. I ate only a few pieces of the bag I bought because they were way too sweet, and unpalatable. The flavors tasted unnatural, and they were way too sweet. read more

Really great selection of salt water taffy on the boardwalk! Watermelon is my favorite! =)

Wonderful. We always go to Dolle's when in Rehoboth. The caramel corn is to die for !!!

Nice location just off the beach. Glad to get several pounds of salt water taffy to bring home from vacation. Taffy is fresh, good genuine flavors, good variety, price is a bit high, but not a bad value for the address. Tough part, the taffy pieces in the two boxes I bought are tiny. Lots of wax paper, lots of effort, to get little niblets of flavor. Most places, three big taffy bites is a snack. Here ten brief pieces and one piece is gone before you have the next one unwrapped. Double sized, the'd still be on the puny side. Saved by the quality, I'd have been mad if it were lackluster taste for all the work. read more
