The treat factory is smaller than the name it bears, a little store instead of factory. The shop has an irresistible aroma- sweet and buttery of meted caramel. There are many kinds of treats, including chutneys, jams, chocolate, honey, dried pasta, etc. You can even find siracha chilli sauce here. A good place to purchase souvenirs

We were looking for things to do in Berry so called in here. An old warehouse type building with an extensive lolly shop. While some products were their own many appeared to be just re-wrapped standard lollies (eg m&m's or lolly banana's) sold at a highly marked up price. It passed a pleasant 30 min looking around and treating the kids to some lollies. But it is expensive for what you get. If need to fill in some time it's something to do but I wouldn't go out of my way and if you don't manage to fit it into your holiday itinerary you haven't missed much.

Every trip to Berry needs time in the Treat Factory. Jams, chutneys, chocolates and sweets and lollies galore. You can watch them making some of their treats sometimes…..very interesting. We never leave empty handed. Next door is a wonderful cafe and ice creamery. We had a lovely cup of tea and a slice each……my passion fruit slice was yummy. You can eat outside or inside, the staff are always nice and the prices are reasonable.

If you are in Berry this is worth calling in. One side is a cafe for coffee, tea and snacks. The other is a chocolate shop. I stopped at the shop section and bought a few Christmas gifts this time. I have visited it before. Good quality chocolate and friendly staff.

If you want a fascinating selection of spices, sauces, kitchen wear, chocolates and confectionary, this is the place for you. The floor area is not large but crammed with all manner of goodies.
Employees are polite, friendly, and helpful.
There is plenty of parking, and ice-cream and slices are available next door.
Called in to look and left $70.00 lighter, which was a pleasure.

This shop has a good array of chocolate and jam collection - everyone will find their favourites here.
We did not see the treats being made but we enjoyed wandering around the different stands of chocolates, lollies, jams and dressings.
Worth a visit - short drive from the Berry town centre.

Very good old fashion Lollys, not a great car park. Lots of room in store. In the cafe next door the only thing which is dairy free is a coconut ghetto.

This was our first visit to the Berry area for many years.
We parked near the vilage centre and were intrigued by the sign to the Treat Factory. We had no idea what it was or how far we would have to walk. There's quite a decent sized car park right there so we could have driven, but perhaps it's just as well we walked given the delicious treats inside.
As we walked up to the entrance, we encountered two groups of people leaving, both with small bags in hand. One of them shouted out a warning to beware the temptation inside. So we were aware of the risks of continuing.
Placed strategically in most corners of the establishment are yummy taster packs. A fantastic marketing ploy because once we tasted them we found it hard to hold back. We bought chocolate coasted fruit, nuts, plus jars of jellies, chutnies and salad dressings.
There's a glass window behind which ladies were working to produce the goods. They don't mind you watching, but we were more interested in sampling the goods.
Others have commented on the price being high, but given the quality and tastiness, we thought the price was quite reasonable. We're bringing home a selection of these treats for friends and family to enjoy. We're sure they will.
We recommend that you include this 'factory' in your must visit list while in Berry.

This little Treat Factory is just out of the main part of Berry and was worth the find. There were numerous varieties of lollies and chocolates, as well as nuts and jams to choose from. The chocolate coconut roughs, dark chocolate bullets and caramels were delicious. I will make this a definite stop when visiting Berry.
