As part of our Food Technology
study ,Room 5 walked briskly down to the
local chocolate factory. When we got there, the owner of the chocolate factory,
Steve, told us what was going to happen.The first thing we saw was the “sugar
crusher”. The machine crushes the sugar into small pieces so the chocolate is
smooth. Next we took turns in having a look inside the mixing machine. Had lots
of melted chocolate! Steve told us that when the chocolate is mixed it goes
through a CHUTE and then into a cooling
machine. Once the chocolate is cooled it
is chopped up in to chocolate chips
which slides along a conveyor belt and drops into a box .The box is sealed and
transported and sold to different food companies.
At the end of the tour Steve gave us each a
bar of chocolate. The chocolate tasted really good. We enjoyed our visit to the
chocolate factory and have a better understanding of how such products are
produced. We hope we can visit again soon! Thanks Steve for the opportunity.
