INSIDE THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY

This three-hour slow TV documentary takes a ‘paddock-to-plate’ approach by following the chocolates’ journey from the raw ingredients to the factory floor, where the audience is immersed and mesmerised in the melting, rolling, drying, shaping and wrapping that goes into making Easter eggs and bunnies.

This slow TV feast is sprinkled with fascinating chocolate-related facts and surprising multicultural stories.

From old-fashioned machinery at the sugar mill in Mackay to the hi-tech robotic equipment used at the Cadbury factories, this is a visual treat as we watch 6,014 tonnes of cocoa, 87 million litres of milk and 54 million kilograms of sugar slowly transform into 477 million eggs and 14.6 million bunnies for Easter 2020.
