Still lots of photos from our PA Christmas left to share! I think the family universally enjoyed the visit to the Hershey Chocolate World. I apologize in advance if this post makes you want to find a chocolate kiss... or a whole hunk of chocolate.
We thought that the activity which would appeal to the range of ages in our group would be the make-your-own chocolate bar. Interestingly, Reni didn't think it was so fun and was uncharacteristically crabby... until a visit to the food court after the chocolate making was complete (just had to explain his faces in the following pictures). Because of FDA (?) guidelines, you see us wearing the lovely apparel below...
You start in a room where you build your candy bar via a touch screen computer station. Then you follow your bar along the assembly line while the toppings are added before a final chocolate bath at the end.
Before the final packaging stage, you go into another room to design your candy bar tin label.
In the carton-ing stage a laser prints your name on the box containing your bar.
(Below) Ellie couldn't wait to sample her bar. As you can tell, the chocolate was still soft! Reni requested... french fries and milk! I have to say, their milk was uh-mazing (probably whole milk, eh?) and Reni's mood turned around quickly.
Thanks for the fun memories, Hersheys!
