A modern confectionery factory manufacturing delicious chocolate fudge, truffles, sauces and other delicacies made from local Tasmanian ingredients occupies the site of a once severely overcrowded prison built in the 1820's for female prisoners. The renovated site now has a lovely garden within the original wall of the prison yard with an excavated convict wash tub as a pretty water feature and Mt Wellington the backdrop. A guided tour includes the factory, gardens, a history of the prison and some tasty samples.
