YUM! This was a fabulous field trip. Great to see how everything was made - plus the ladies in the gift shop gave us samples. They were so nice to our group. It really made the trip wonderful! The field trip was for all ages. Some factories don't allow smaller children -- but they have a nice viewing area with glass windows to see into the factory area where the product is made --- yet keeps the children back and away from the machines and any danger.
Here is part of our group. We were all asked to wear the hair nets - don't they just scream 'high fashion'!
I don't know how these ladies manage to NOT sample as they work!
This is the machine that puts the marks on top so you can tell what type of candy it is in the box. Each of the various varieties have a different mark on top.
Here they are boxing up the candies.
This machine wraps cellophane and seals it shut around the individual candy bars. It is hard to see but the candy bars are on the tray in the front portion of the picture.
They also make a cheesy popcorn that is made with real Wisconsin cheese. It is yummy --- we got a sample at the end of the tour.
