We were mesmerized by the taffy pulling, the wrapping machine, the conveyor belt, etc. We were able to watch them flavor taffy by hand, pour out pralines, and cut and wrap candies. The staff seemed eager to answer questions and dole out a few samples. Great wall of candy and ice cream too. Be sure to look up and see the train running around the shop.
