THE TASTE

Chocolate and ice‑cream sampling included

THE PROCESS

Factory floor and video demonstrations

The tour covers the chocolate‑making process; because production levels vary, videos are used to illustrate processes when there is limited activity on the floor.

THE DETAILS

Appointment scheduling and low net cost

All tours are by appointment. The posted tour price includes sales tax; after you receive the voucher and apply it to same‑day purchases the tour’s net cost is nominal.
