The Affy Tapple Factory Store, known for creating The Original Caramel Apple, is a cherished tradition in Chicago and the Midwest since 1948. Visitors can find a variety of caramel apples available year-round, made from fresh, crisp apples dipped in famous small batch caramel and topped with fun ingredients. Many customers love Affy Tapples for their delicious taste and consider them a nutritious treat, although some have had disappointing experiences with quality, noting issues like brown, soft apples or tasteless flavors. The store is praised for its friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere, with some finding better prices compared to other retailers. Affy Tapple continues to delight both new and returning customers with its classic offerings.
