about the chocolate tour

ABOUT THE CHOCOLATE TOUR
Thank you for your interest in Bissinger’s historic new Chocolate Factory. We are looking forward to
showing you the art and craft of creating our award-winning fine confections. The tour will highlight
the company’s 350-year history, our artisan techniques, and discuss the chocolate-making process
with a sampling of our delicious chocolate at the end of the tour.
Tours are free of charge, approximately 45 minutes long and available Monday, Wednesday and
Friday at 10:00AM. The maximum number of guests per tour is 12. If there are more than 12 in attendance, the group will be divided and follow each other in 15 minute increments. For groups with
children, we ask there be one adult per six children. If there are children under the age of five, the
child must be held or strapped in a stroller at all times. Below is a list of frequently asked questions:
