At Boehms Candies & Chocolates’ Swiss-style chalet in the suburbs, the company offers free self-guided window tours to view its chocolates being made. Learn more about the company’s history and candy-making process at each window. Tip: The ideal time frame to catch the day’s happenings is 9 a.m.–3 p.m., Monday–Friday.
During the summer tour season (mid-June through early September) public tours are given for groups of up to 15. If you are with a smaller group, you will be combined with other tour-goers to reach the 15-person maximum. These tours deliver a more in-depth look, providing explanations and entrance to the factory, where visitors can get up close to the chocolates as they roll down the conveyor belt. Private guided tours are offered year-round, depending on staff availability.
