In about an hour you can learn how candy is made the old fashioned way at Hammond's. Every 30 minutes they start a free tour with a quick video giving you history about the company, how candy is made and the wide variety of products this small factory makes evey year. Your tour guide then takes you through the side... More

Before my visit I searched for things to do in Denver and this was listed as a top attraction. The tour is about 30 to 45 minutes and you do get a sample at the end of the tour. We also purchased some chocolate candy which was delicious. During my search for attractions, I read a review that said you... More

Great free attraction. You actually see how the candy is being made, including the fantastic smell. Watching the skilled workers is a great experience. Kids will love the free sample they get at the end. Doesn't take so much time, but it's really worth going there once in Denver.

Whenever we're in the Denver area we go out of our way to stop at the Hammond's factory. We never leave disappointed! Once again we packed the car with their natural (color and flavor) candies, including a whole case of their nutmeg candy canes. The service and friendliness of the staff is always a treat in itself. The free tour... More

Great place to take the youngsters! If you let them eat sugar that is.... Very friendly staff and tour guides. Not a very long tour, but you get a free paper candy makers hat and a candy cane at the end. What surprised me about Hammond's is they not only have the traditional peppermint candy canes, but flavors like cherry,... More

This is a great Christmas break activity for kids of all ages. The tour itself is decent (at least it's free)...not interactive at all and you're behind glass the entire time unlike other candy factories that I've been to, but the tour guide knew her stuff. Best thing about it is the gift shop and the huge candy canes that... More

What can I say, besides it is free. We were looking for a fun family activity when my mom was in town, with a low budget since we went right after Christmas. I had no idea how they made candy canes, and it was pretty cool. Some parts were a little hard to see, but our guide brought us back... More

A fun place to visit. The 'tour' could use some updating and the tour guide could use some training on knowledge, delivery, enthusiasm etc. She stumbled and mumbled through the information and sounded totally bored. The video was old and out-dated. But ~ getting to see the candy being made is interesting and fun for all ages. Free samples are... More

Hammonds has great candy, and it was fun to see how it was made, but for a tour, it was rather short! and of course, if you have young kids.... be prepared for all the crying once they see the candy store and you tell them to choose one thing... There were quite a few criers on our tour which... More
