Taffy is a type of chewy candy. Taffy is made by stretching or pulling a sticky mass of boiled sugar, butter, flavorings, and coloring until fluffy. When this process is complete, the taffy is rolled, cut into small pastel-colored pieces and wrapped in wax paper to keep it soft.
Taffy (born Katherine Quaye) was a 1980s Hi-NRG disco singer known for her Italo disco hit I Love My Radio. The song, which was released in the United Kingdom by Rhythm King's Transglobal Records (both part of Mute Records in those days) was originally a hit in France in 1985 and was originally known as a record about a Disc Jockey broadcasting after midnight. However as very few radio stations in the United Kingdom broadcast after 12am in the late 1980s this reference in the record was changed, and so a re-recorded version called I Love My Radio (My Dee Jay's Radio) was put out instead.
Taffy is a sometimes pejorative term for a Welsh person or thing. It is derived from the Welsh forename "Dafydd", or "David" and is documented from the year 1700 onwards.
