After watching a DVD our guide, dressed in purple dungarees and matching Crocs leads us into the factory. As soon as I enter I feel a high as the intoxicating smell of chocolate pervades my senses. I pass several smiling workers and wonder if it's the chocolate effect.
Naively I was expecting a Willy Wonka-style factory with bubbling cauldrons of chocolate everywhere but it's all shiny machines and conveyor belts. Still I'm excited when newly-wrapped Crunchies pour on to the conveyor belt for inspection. They're in mid Easter egg production. A line of employees are handwrapping these in foil as this task is too complicated for machines.
