Many years ago, Coleen and I visited the Hershey chocolate factory in Pennsylvania. It was fun enough and at the end of the tour we each got a chocolate. So, I had no great expectations for the Ganong Chocolatier and Chocolate Museum in Saint Stephen, New Brunswick. But OMG was the chocolate and the tour first rate. We had a wonderful guide and fun tour set in the old factory. And they gave us five (5) scrumptious chocolate samples. The new factory is located at 1 Chocolate Drive.
Ganong was founded in 1873. It has remained a family owned and run company for all that time. One of the Ganong presidents was reputed to have kept his trim figure despite being the in-house quality control tester of 3 pounds of chocolate a day. Now that’s a job I could lean into.Read more
