The Chocolate Factory

I ought to just call this 'experiencing Illinois on your Harley' being as that's always how we end up visiting all the places we go to. Today we rode down to the Chocolate Factory at Dixon Springs.

 The Chocolate Factory is a small but well stocked specialty candy store, and all the chocolates are made right there on site. We always stop for the ice cream, they have a whole bunch of flavors and offer hand made chocolate dipped waffle cones :)

You can special order or pick from a huge selection of specialty yummies.  Go to www.thechocolatefactory.net for pricing and ordering information.
They are open Mon-Sat 9:00 - 5:00, all year, but they are NOT open Sundays (we've been there twice thinking they were >_< )
