It’s almost Valentine’s Day, and time for chocolate! Check out the virtual tour at Malley’s Chocolate factory in Ohio.
DISCLAIMER: ClickSchooling is not responsible for the chocolate cravings that may ensue by today’s review. You may want to have a chocolate bar, morsel, or cup of cocoa on hand to enjoy during your virtual tours!
When you get to the site, scroll down to view the virtual tour on how Buckeyes are made – chocolate and peanut butter candies by Malley’s.
And here is another factory tour. See how the famous Mallo Cups, Peanut Butter Cups, and Smoothie cups are made at the Boyer Candy Factory in Altoona, Pennsylvania.

And for a good laugh, watch this excerpt from an “I Love Lucy” television episode from the 50’s on YouTube. Lucy and Ethel ‘work’ at the chocolate factory. (As always, parents should preview the sites to determine suitability of content.)
