Admission to the Chocolate Factory,
located 15 minutes from the Strip, is
free. Once inside, visitors take a self
guided tour, complete with step by
step placards and can watch video
demonstrations.

Large glass windows provide a behind-the-scenes glimpse
at the candy making process, from the preparation of candy
fillings to each piece of candy being wrapped individually in foil.

The tour ends in the Chocolate Shoppe, where visitors are tempted
with an expansive array of confections. The first sample is free, but
few visitors are able to stop at just one. The Lemon Satin Cremes,
Almond Butter Krisps, Caramel Splendors, Pecan Caramel Raptures,
Coconut Delights and Almond Clusters are nearly impossible to resist.
