Wordle #1452 Cracks Sweet and Sticky: June 10's Puzzle Was a Real Treat
So, Wordle lovers — how did you fare today? Let’s talk about Wordle #1452, the puzzle that greeted us this beautiful Tuesday, June 10th. Whether you cracked it quickly or stared at the grid with a furrowed brow, today’s answer brought a dash of sugary nostalgia and a tricky twist to the mix. And yes, if you're still playing catch-up, spoiler alert: the answer was TAFFY .
Right from the start, today’s Wordle was sneaky. The hint thrown out was something like “Candy might be a stretch.” And if you’re quick on wordplay, that double entendre might’ve nudged your brain toward chewy confections. But even then, it wasn’t an obvious leap to the final answer. The real kicker? That double F . It’s always those repeating letters that add a layer of misdirection — they make you second-guess valid guesses and spiral into less optimal ones.

Many players (including the original analyst over at Forbes) started with a standard opener like BREAD , which gave minimal traction. A lonely 'A' didn’t help much. From there, something like AMITY helped narrow the options, and TANGY brought it even closer. But the moment of clarity came with words like TABBY and finally, the sweet success of TAFFY .
If you're keeping score in the increasingly popular Competitive Wordle format, guessing it in four like many did would net you zero points. Not bad, not great. But if the Bot guessed it in three? Ouch — that’s a loss, and you're down one point. As the scoreboard stands, Erik (the player) is trailing behind the ever-lucky Bot with 3 points to 9 this June.
Beyond gameplay, there's a fun bit of trivia here: the word “taffy” has its roots in British dialect and was first recorded in the early 1800s. It’s thought to mimic the sound and feel of the pulling process used in making the candy — you know, that stretchy, glossy swirl we associate with old-timey fairs. Just to be clear, this is unrelated to the slang term for a Welsh person, which comes from “Dafydd,” the Welsh version of David.
Today’s puzzle was less about logic and more about gut feeling — a sweet blend of intuition and luck. It tested pattern recognition and memory, and if you were craving something light but mentally chewy, Wordle #1452 was the perfect flavor.
So, how’d you do? Did TAFFY stick to your brain like the real stuff sticks to your teeth? If not, don’t worry — tomorrow brings a fresh challenge. And remember: even a tough puzzle is just another chance to stretch those brain muscles.
