I went with friends on a fabulous chocolate factory tour, just in time to sample some eggs before the big Easter holiday. Easter is celebrated in a big way here in Easter, and you can easily see 3+ aisles at the grocery stores dedicated to all types of chocolate eggs, chickens, etc. The bunny apparently doesn't hop around in Italy, but they do celebrate with chocolate.
The tour was fabulous, not only because we learned the secret to making hollow eggs, but we got to sample many of the treats along the way. And you all know, I love my samples...just ask anyone who has ever joined me on a weekend Costco trip!
The tour was very lax..we didn't have to wear any hairnets or booties, but instead were given full access to the various work stations and we got to get up close and personal with the chocolate connosiurs and with the chocolate itself! Yum! Not bad for a free tour!
