Welcome to The Fudge Files: Tales from the Sweet Side of Westport

Written By Paula Bird

Hey there, sweet tooth! 👋 We’re Sea Bird Gifts & Candy, your go-to gift shop and candy stop in the heart of Westport, Washington. Nestled just steps from the harbor, we specialize in handmade fudge, saltwater taffy, fine chocolates, and all the quirky seaside gifts you didn’t know you needed.

But this blog isn’t just about sugar (though there’s plenty of that). It’s about stories. About community. About sharing the joy of life by the sea — one taffy pull at a time.

🐚 Who We Are

We’re a locally owned shop run by folks who believe fudge should be thick, chocolatey, and borderline spiritual. We believe saltwater taffy should stretch farther than your weekend plans. And most of all, we believe Westport isn’t just a fishing town — it’s a place packed with character, history, and heart.

If you’ve ever wandered in to “just look,” then walked out with a bag of taffy, a candle shaped like a crab, and three types of fudge — you’ve met our vibe.

✨ Our Mission

Our mission is simple:
Spread joy through delicious candy and unique gifts, support our local community, and never take ourselves too seriously.

Whether you’re here for vacation fudge, a rainy day pick-me-up, or just a place to chat about porch pirates or Jetty Cat, we want you to feel like part of the Sea Bird flock.

🎯 What You'll Find Here

The Fudge Files is where we’ll:

  • Share stories behind our fudge flavors and candy finds 🍫

  • Highlight local events and awesome Westport businesses 🌊

  • Post behind-the-scenes peeks (taffy-making is wild, y’all) 🎥

  • Celebrate our customers, neighbors, and town characters 🐾

❤️ From Our Hearts to Yours

We’re proud to call Westport, WA home. And we’re even prouder to serve visitors, neighbors, and candy lovers from all over. Whether you’re new here or one of our regulars — thank you. You keep the lights on, the fudge warm, and the puffin mascot fed (figuratively).

So grab a piece of taffy, get comfy, and let’s get into some sticky stories.
Welcome to The Fudge Files.
