One thing is certain though: It was Joseph Fralinger who popularized the salt water taffy and became Atlantic City's Saltwater Taffy King. Fralinger realized the potential of selling the candy to bathers and boardwalk visitors, and he saw there was a market for taking home the taffy as a souvenir.hough it was sold in many places, Atlantic City remained the saltwater taffy 'capital of the world, and the candy is still synonymous with the boardwalk. It appears the first taffy made and sold in Atlantic City called 'Salt Water Taffy' was more gimmick than anything else.
