Need to make a reservation OVER 24 hours in advance. We showed up at 10:45 am and they were booked for the whole day.

Tour a Candy Factory

Around the holiday season the shop can be quite crowded, with local and visiting shoppers. If a crowded shop matters to you, check the hours and plan. Personally I like being around people!

The last tour is at 2:15 so I missed it. The retail space was still open.

Quick, fun tour. Staff very friendly. In and out in under an hour. Neat to see up close how candy is hand made in large batches.

Short and sweet tour. Fun to see taffy and candy canes made and shaped.
