Cadbury's Chocolate Factory is a chocolate manufacturing facility located in Claremont, Tasmania, Australia. The factory was established in 1922 by the Cadbury company, which is now a part of Mondelez International. The factory is one of the major landmarks in Tasmania and has played a significant role in the local economy and community.

History[edit | edit source]

The factory was established in 1922 by the British chocolate company Cadbury to cater to the growing demand for chocolate in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. The site in Claremont was chosen for its proximity to the Derwent River, which provided a reliable water source, and the cool climate, which was ideal for chocolate production.

Production[edit | edit source]

Cadbury's Chocolate Factory in Tasmania produces a wide range of chocolate products, including chocolate bars, chocolate blocks, and confectionery. The factory uses locally sourced ingredients, such as Tasmanian milk, to create its products. The production process involves several stages, including cocoa bean roasting, grinding, conching, and tempering.

Visitor Centre[edit | edit source]

The factory once had a popular visitor centre that offered guided tours, allowing visitors to see the chocolate-making process firsthand. The tours included a visit to the production floor, a tasting session, and a chance to purchase exclusive products from the factory shop. However, the visitor centre was closed to the public in 2015.

Community Impact[edit | edit source]
