Cerreta Candy Factory


Today we visited the Cerreta Candy Factory in the historic district of Glendale, AZ. We got to see how the candy was made and learn about different kinds of candy. We even got to taste some of the yummy treats...white chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate mints, and fudge. The best part was making our own chocolate pizzas. The kids were able to choose their pizza toppings...raisins (sausage), m & m type candy (peperoni), nuts, marshmellows, mini mints, etc. Then they covered them with white chocolate (cheese). What a tasty field trip!

Kaden, Carly, Michael, and Kate are enjoying their chocolate mints!


Here we are making our chocolate pizzas...our favorite part!


After visiting the candy factory we headed over to Murphy Park which is where Glendale Glitters is held at night during the month of December. We had a picnic lunch and then played around in the grass areas. We even got to see some workers putting up more Chirstmas lights in the big trees.

  1. Big fun! I wish my day included a trip to the candy factory. My advice to children... never grow up.
