MMMMM! Hammonds suckers! Picture taken by Nicole on bakingbites.com
I was going to write a blog on our tour of Hammonds Candies a few weeks ago but found this description of the tour with much better pictures than mine! We did have a great time there and would recommend it to anyone visiting Denver.

I'll add just a few of my pics to make it a little more personal but the author does a great job of describing what we saw.
The hot candy just pored and still steaming being sprinkled with sugar by a candy maker. |
A candy maker working with the hot candy. Sorry about the blur! |
The man in the back is working with a big batch of pale green candy. The worker in front is still working with the hot candy. |
Making big suckers. They must make them in 60 seconds before the candy gets too hard! |
The man on the left is putting in the stick. I just didn't get the right angle! The people in back are making candy canes. |
2 ladies boxing up chocolate cherries. |

Ohh lala bet it smelled delicious in there.
