FAQ

Product - Ingredients and Care:

What is the best way to store Numa taffies?

Our taffies are temperature sensitive, but still taste great when exposed to the heat or cold. They are best stored between 60-70 degrees F away from the sun. 

Help! My taffies melted.

In the summer, we recommend you add a cold pack to your shipment. If they still arrive softer than you prefer you may try putting them in the fridge to firm them up. If you added a cold pack and they've still arrived in unconsumable condition, please send us a photo of them at hello@numafoods.com and we'll send you a refund.

What is Maltose?

Maltose is a natural sweetener made from fermented grains used since Ancient Chinese times. It is 50% less sweet than normal table sugar and possesses high levels of fiber and potassium. It is the main and only sweetener in our taffies and often considered just as, if not more, healthy than honey.

How is your maltose upcycled?

We source our maltose only from farmers who utilize waste grains in production. Waste grains are grains that are unfit for consumption and thus, likely to be thrown out - they are the largest contribution group to food waste in the world.

Orders, shipping and delivery:

How long should I expect until I get my order?

For ground shipments in the US, please allow 5-7 business days for delivery. Orders after 3pm EST generally will not ship until the next business day.

Please note our taffies have a tendency to melt during shipping in extreme temperatures (more than 90 degrees). Packages that are left out in the sun or require multiple delivery attempts have the highest likelihood of melting – we appreciate your help in ensuring the smoothest delivery process possible.

We do not ship internationally at this point, but we hope to change that soon!
