Cadbury Factory Australia

It would have to be CRAZY for me NOT to visit a chocolate factory.

So even knowing that the Cadbury factory in Tasmania, Australia didn't allow visitors to tour their factory anymore, which was an utter bummer, I was still keen to visit the visitor center.

As most would say, for the sake of it.

So one morning, Jerine took me on a bus to visit the Cadbury Factory located slightly out of town (it'll take around an hour to reach by bus).

If you're not a fan of chocolate, to be honest, there really was NO POINT to visit this visitor centre.

Few reasons.

1. It cost AUD7.50 to enter.

2. You don't get to see the factory in production.

3. The only thing you'd receive from the fee you paid was the chocolate Easter egg from the entrance lady.

4. You'll spend more money buying their merchandises which you wouldn't need.

Anyone want chocolate candles?


5. You'll spend even more money on chocolate goodies from the Cadbury line from their store there, of which price will not differ from supermarket's.

Though if you're lucky, you might want to consider hitting the store during sales.

And it's always fun and exciting to be surrounded by all varieties of chocolates.

Ohh! Last box! Faster grab it!


But then again, if you're not a fan of chocolate, then I guess it wouldn't be half an exciting for you then.

Really, I'd strongly suggest skip the whole damn thing if, and only if, you don't get orgasmic-ally excited seeing chocolates.


The only interesting part of the whole place, I guess, was the lab guy who would show you the different types of chocolates of Cadbury's.

How they pair the ingredients

and you get to sample each, just to know how raw cocoa syrup taste like,

very smooth, but very very bitter.


or what makes a white chocolate.

cocoa butter, the key ingredient in making white chocolate.


Do you know there's no cocoa content in White Chocolate. Funny how they would even call it a chocolate.

Well, at least I sampled some things.

Yum. I got to sample free milk chocolate flakes.

And took photo with the Cadbury car.

Which happened to be there for ages now.

There's a tv attached to it


The only other highlight of the visit was to watch a 10 min documentary of how Cadbury came about.

It would have been education and enlightening, but Jerine was rushing to go back so we have to cut the trip short. Besides, we didn't want to miss our last bus home.

So we looked around at some of the items displayed in the center before making our way back.

Like the Cadbury family.

It was cute.
If only I could just grab them and eat them.

  6. I'm a HUGE fan of the caramel Easter chocolate eggs, and the best time to get it it post-Easter, coz they really mark down the prices. I've never seen 40 cents though (probably coz I get mine from Coles), but close enough. :)
