The wonderful world of Jelly Belly

By michele broitman.

From the moment we stepped inside, the Jelly Belly Factory was beyond my imagination. Larger-than-life jelly beans and a hot-air balloon dangled from the high ceiling, their bright colors energizing the large space. A Jelly Belly-decorated motorcycle resided in the center of the room, and framed Jelly Belly art—jelly bean mosaics of Hollywood legends and celebrated leaders, like Ronald Reagan—hung on the walls. Reagan was a big fan of Jelly Belly jelly beans and even wrote to the company in 1973 as the Governor of California, “We can hardly start a meeting or make a decision without passing the jar of jelly beans.” During his presidency, his sweet tooth became famous, as he had a special Jelly Belly bean holder installed on Marine One and 3.5 tons shipped to his inauguration celebration, all of which helped put the company on the map.

It was my daughter Nika’s fifth birthday. After attending one too many birthday parties at loud and stress-inducing pizza joints, my husband, Ed, and I wanted to try something different this year. We hoped this Jelly Belly Factory tour would be a wonderland of sweet exploration and make for a memorable birthday for our little girl.

On the drive to the factory in Fairfield, California—a city between Sacramento and San Francisco—Nika’s 8-year-old brother, Kimo, had excitedly listed off his favorite jelly bean flavors: Crushed Pineapple, Toasted Marshmallow and Pumpkin Pie. Nika confessed her wish to try one of every flavor. Ed and I laughed at her enthusiasm, feeling hopeful this tour would be our birthday-girl’s dream come true.

How It’s Made

After examining the whimsical décor, we decided to try the Chocolate and Wine Experience, which gave us front-of-line access to the factory tour after the tasting. Eating chocolate instead of waiting in line with our birthday girl—yes, please.

The scent of cocoa was strong as we entered the tasting area on the second floor. We weren’t sure what to expect, as we came for sugary sweets, not velvety chocolate and wine. We all sampled the chocolates and fudge. They were a heavenly fusion of sweet and salty. Ed and I also took a few sips of local  Suisun Valley wine , the fruity pairing with the bittersweet chocolate tingling our taste buds.

My kids looked up at me with huge, chocolaty smiles, and I grinned back.

So far, I had every indication this tour was going to be a triumph, as we had already begun to capture the factory’s sweet magic with our chocolate encrusted smiles.

Before we knew it, we finished our tasting and it was time for the self-guided factory tour. We were ushered onto elevated platforms over the factory floor and began our sweet journey in the candy kitchen, which included interactive games and HD/4K videos with an up-close look at the candy making action.

We watched confectioners mix water, corn syrup, sugar and flavoring (that day was peach, which we could smell when we walked in) to make a hot liquid that would eventually become hundreds of jelly beans. The liquid was poured into trays with bean forms, and then we followed big cranes carrying those 25-pound trays of beans to where they rest for a few days.

A Jelly Belly employee offered us a few solidified samples, which Nika eagerly snatched up. “Sweet, but doesn’t taste like jelly beans,” she declared.

The employee replied, “That’s because the beans haven’t gotten their sugar coating yet.”

We entered the area where the beans get their sweet coating, which looked like a construction zone with large rotating drums spinning freshly made beans. Kimo intently watched as a confectioner shoveled sugar onto the spinning beans. “It’s like they’re making sugar cement,” he laughed.

Nika was clearly enthralled with the process, her eyes glued to the machines. “Are they jelly beans yet?” She asked as we continued the tour into the next room.

The sorting room is where the “Belly Flops” are separated from the perfect Jelly Belly beans. A rainbow of crates spread before us, Nika jumped and exclaimed, “They’ve got the candy coating now. I want to try everything!”

Another Jelly Belly employee, standing near one of the interactive stations, heard Nita’s exclamation and laughed.

“That’s right,” the employee said. She handed Nika another jelly bean sample and took one for herself. “Let’s eat it at the same time,” she told Nika. “One, two, three!”

They both popped the jelly bean into their mouths and intently chewed, analyzing the flavors with their tongues. Nika giggled and said, “It’s a real jelly bean now.”

Ed and I sampled the margarita and blackberry flavors that had been resting for the past several days. The kids eagerly tasted every flavor available, a truly birthday-worthy splurge, and a birthday wish come true for Nika.

“I wonder if oompa loompas work here after dark,” Ed teased as the kids explored the jelly bean smorgasbord.

Kimo rolled his eyes—a little too old for his dad’s silly antics—but Nika’s eyes widened. “I want to be their Willy Wonka!” she exclaimed.

Ed laughed, “Or Wilma Wonka in your case.”

Our self-guided tour came to an end, but we could sample more beans just beyond the exit door in the candy shop. The kids raced to the massive shop—basically a jelly bean utopia. Brightly colored candy met us at every turn. The kids gleefully sampled all their favorites and found some new ones—Buttered Popcorn and Sunkist® Lime. I glanced at Ed, and giggled when I saw he was just as enthralled as they were.

Sweet Notes

After our practically gluttonous jelly bean tastings, the kids filled bags with their favorite flavors. We also grabbed some bean-shaped burgers at the Jelly Belly Café (hoping to curb the sugar rush) and a box of chocolate at the fudge counter. On our way to the car, with arms full of sweet treats, Kimo asked “Can we come back for my birthday, Mom?”

“If that’s what you want. I’m up for plenty more tastings,” I said, smiling.

Nika skipped the rest of the way to our car, singing a song she made up about jelly beans and birthday cake, and I distinctly heard the lyric “best birthday ever” enthusiastically chanted from her lips. Her fifth birthday had been a total success, and so much more enjoyable than birthdays we’d had in the past, because it was just the four of us having fun together. I could foresee this becoming a new family tradition.

It doesn’t stop at Jelly Belly’s sweet confections. Discover Fairfield’s other tempting tours and tastings.

Jelly Belly Factory Tour Expands with a New Museum

Grand opening will take place july 1.

FAIRFIELD, CALIF., June 20, 2022 – The Jelly Belly Factory Tour just got a little sweeter with the addition of the Jelly Belly Museum.

The Jelly Belly Museum’s grand opening celebration will take place Friday, July 1 at the Jelly Belly Visitor Center in Fairfield, California. To celebrate the grand opening on July 1, the factory tour and museum experience will be free to all guests from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. The first 300 guests will also receive a free 2 pound bag of Jelly Belly Belly Flops® jelly beans.

The museum experience begins with a short ride in a Jelly Belly Express passenger train (weather permitting) from the Jelly Belly Visitor Center to the museum entrance. With decorative jelly beans hanging from the ceiling, this museum presents the evolution of candy-making equipment and the growth of the family-owned Jelly Belly Candy Company through a whimsical and interactive experience. Guests will get to view over a century’s worth of candy-making equipment that is brought to life through videos accessed via QR code and narrated by Herm Rowland, Chairman of the Board at Jelly Belly Candy Company.

“The Jelly Belly Factory Tour allows guests to see how candy is made today, but we felt it was important to show the history that led to our current factory processes through a museum, too,” said John Jamison, VP of Retail Operations at Jelly Belly Candy Company. “The Jelly Belly Museum is a truly unique experience and we were so grateful to have the opportunity to share Herm’s unrivaled knowledge of candy-making with everyone.”

Several vehicles and installations from Mr. Rowland’s private collection are on display in the museum and represent key moments in the company’s history. Guests will see a 1934 Ford V8 Touring Sedan, a 1935 Chris-Craft boat and a 1982 Maserati Quattroporte.

The Jelly Belly Museum concludes with an area of photo opportunities. Guests will be able to take a photo in front of dancing jelly beans, in a candy-themed spinning drum, and on the Jelly Belly Bean Machine, a motorcycle with a sidecar in the shape of a jelly bean. When guests are done walking the museum, they will have the opportunity to ride aboard the Jelly Belly passenger train back to the Visitor Center.  

The Jelly Belly Museum and Factory Tour are open daily to the public from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are priced at $7 per adult and $3 per child for the factory tour and museum and parking is free during business hours.

Famous for offering public tours, the Jelly Belly Factory Tour has received many awards for excellence over the years. Located halfway between San Francisco and Sacramento, Jelly Belly has welcomed more than eight million visitors since opening its factory doors to the public for tours in the mid-1980s. The Jelly Belly Visitor Center is also home to a large Jelly Belly retail store, Chocolate and Fudge Shoppe, Jelly Belly Café, and the Chocolate & Wine Experience.

With candy-making roots dating back to 1869, Jelly Belly Candy Company began making Jelly Belly® jelly beans in 1976. Today, Jelly Belly products are sold all over the world and the company remains family-owned and operated by the fourth, fifth and sixth generations of the candy-making family. For more information about Jelly Belly and its confections, visit www.jellybelly.com or consumers can call (800) 522-3267 and retailers can call (800) 323-9380.

I've been on the weekends and the weekdays, and the weekend tour is not worth it because everything is down and the workers are enjoying their weekend. Better to go Monday through Friday.

Tours are long hallways with windows above several manufacturing areas. There are interactive information stations along the walls, and views of employees below. Fun to see how it works!

The switchback line for the free Jelly Belly factory tour queues right in front of the free bean Sample Bar. Inflated jelly bean cartoon characters float overhead. Most of the sugar-stoked families don't bother to look at an exhibit behind glass in the lobby. It contains "Articles from the collection of the Herman G. Rowland family archives" -- a display of President Ronald Reagan memorabilia.

Rowland was chairman of the board at the Herman Goelitz Candy Company, and collected items, from campaign buttons, to golf balls to autographed photos. Throughout the Reagan terms 1981-1989, his company sent jelly bean jars and gift boxes to Washington, inscribed with the Presidential Seal. They were used as gifts for many visiting dignitaries. President Reagan sent Rowland a letter only days before exiting the White House in 1989, blown up in the exhibit for all to read, where RR acknowledges "jelly beans seem to have become a 'Reagan trademark.'"

"Thank you for making my job just that much sweeter. Sincerely, Ronald Reagan."

Make sure to check out the "Belly Flops" that are for sale near the door. These are the beans that didn't quite make the cut (usually too big or too small -- but sometimes really weird looking). They taste great and are super cheap!

Sweet Beans: All About the Jelly Belly Factory Tour

Jelly beans are one of my favorite treats to take on road trips- they store well, don’t melt, and you can hand out just a few at a time. What better way to start a road trip than with a visit to the Jelly Belly Factory in Fairfield, CA?

The Jelly Belly factory tour takes you above the floor of the factory where you can watch actual Jelly Belly jelly beans being made and packaged. Videos along the way teach you about the process, as well as fun facts about Jelly Belly jelly beans.

Where is the Jelly Belly Factory?

We visited the Jelly Belly Factory in California when our kids were ages 4, and 6. The jelly bean factory is at 1 Jelly Belly Lane, Fairfield, CA, about halfway between San Francisco and Sacramento. This was the first stop on our American Northwest road trip .

What Kind of Candy Does the Jelly Belly Factory Make?

The Jelly Belly factory makes jelly beans, licorice, candy corn, gummy worms, chocolates, and other sweet treats. They also have a full line of Harry Potter beans and chocolate treats. However, most of what we saw on the tour was jelly beans!

Did you know that Very Cherry is the most popular flavor of Jelly Belly jelly bean?

We love the Grab & Go Bags , at 3.5 oz each you can try a couple of different combinations! S(6) picked out the Unicorn Mix for her birthday- it’s got eight flavors of sparkling jewel jelly beans!

What Do You Get to See at the Jelly Belly Factory?

The Jelly Belly Tour is self-guided, you can go through it at your own pace. It starts with an introductory video that teaches you about the family behind the brand, and a bit about how jelly beans are made. From there, you’ll walk along a path above the factory floor, so you can look down at the machines and workers below. There are videos every so often that explain the process.

A Bit About Jelly Belly

Jelly Belly is a family-owned company that’s been making candy for six generations. They started making jelly beans in 1965 and acquired the name Jelly Belly in 1980. With over 100 flavors, they now sell jelly beans in over 80 countries.

They were a small company that got a big break when then-governor Ronald Reagan became a public fan of the brand. His favorite flavor was licorice. In 1983 Regan as President, even sent some Jelly Belly beans into space!

How are Jelly Beans Made?

The process of making a jelly bean is fascinating! I used to work in the specialty food industry, so it was really fun for me to see how they had the factory set up and all the different machines they use to make it more efficient.

Each jelly bean takes 7-14 days to make! Here’s a bit about the process, it’s by no means complete but gives you an idea of how complex the process is to make this treat.

The Insides of the Jelly Bean

The insides of the jelly bean are flavored, as well as the shell. First, a candy slurry of sugar, water, and corn syrup is made in a big kettle. Each kettle holds enough slurry to make 200,000 jelly bean centers. The slurry is flavored, cooked, poured into jelly bean molds, and then frozen.

Adding the Shell

The jelly bean centers then go into rotating drums that look a bit like a small cement mixer. Each one holds 250 pounds of jelly bean centers. Flavoring and sugar are spooned in as the candies rotate until the right shell is formed. Apparently, if it’s done wrong the whole batch can stick together!

Finishing the Jelly Bean

After the center is finished, the jelly beans are sorted, and any misshapen beans are removed (you can buy some of these “Belly Flops” in the gift shop!) The Jelly Belly logo is stamped on each bean, then they are ready to package!

Is the Jelly Belly Factory Kid-Friendly?

Our kids loved the experience overall. However, they didn’t have the patience to stop and listen to all the videos. There are two games along the route, though we didn’t spend too much time on them.

One is a goalie game- stand on the yellow pad and try to swat the flying digital jelly beans out of the goal. Our kids weren’t tall enough to signal to the computer to start, we had to jump in to get it going, then let them play! The second game is a head-to-head competition sorting jelly beans on a screen.

The kids loved seeing the machines working- moving trays and boxes back and forth. They have a special spider robot arm that sees the bags of jelly beans on the conveyor belt, picks them up, turns them in the right direction, then puts them in boxes for shipping. The kids also loved browsing the gift shop and picking out a few special jelly beans to take with us!

What Else Can I Do at the Jelly Belly Factory?

Once you’ve finished the tour and taken your time peering through the glass at the workers below, there are a few other things to do at the Jelly Belly Factory.

The Jelly Belly Chocolate and Wine Experience

On the second floor, as you exit the tour, you’ll have the option to add on the Jelly Belly Chocolate and Wine Experience. This is for adults only, though minors can tag along. There are six pairings, each includes wines from Suisun Valley Wineries paired with Jelly Belly Chocolates.

The Jelly Bean Art Gallery

As you enter the factory you’ll see several examples of jelly bean art. There are more hung throughout the factory. After the tour, there’s a small art gallery with additional works. All of these are images (mostly portraits) made in a mosaic style using jelly beans.

The Jelly Belly Gift Shop

On the first floor, where you first buy your tour tickets, is the Jelly Belly Gift Shop. You can buy jelly beans and a small selection of other merchandise with the company logo.

There is also a Chocolate Shoppe on one side of the gift shop, that did not appear to be open when we visited.

Wait, No Sample Bar?

No, no sample bar. In the past, the Jelly Belly Gift Shop included a sample bar, where you could request up to three jelly belly flavors at a time. You were then welcome to get back in line for another three.

Sadly, this is no longer available and seems to have been permanently removed. We were a bit bummed about this- sometimes you want to try a Kiwi-flavored jelly bean without committing to a full bag! Mint Chocolate Chip, anyone?

The Jelly Belly Cafe

The Jelly Belly Cafe offers a selection of hamburgers, sandwiches, and salads. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. We didn’t stop to try it.

How Many Jelly Belly Factories Are There?

There are currently three Jelly Belly Factories- Fairfield, CA; North Chicago, IL, and Rayong, Thailand. The factory in California makes most of the jelly beans for the US and is the only one currently offering tours.

What Does it Cost to Visit the Jelly Belly Factory?

In 2023, there is a charge of $7 per adult and $3 per child to take the Jelly Belly Tour. They give you a sealed sample of jelly beans and a paper hat to wear for the duration of the tour.

When is the Jelly Belly Factory Open for Tours?

The Jelly Belly Factory is open for tours from 9:15- 4 pm daily. If you can, try to visit during the week when candy-making is sure to be going on. If you visit during the weekends, you will probably not get to see the factory in full operation.

They are closed for New Year’s Day, Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

How Long is the Jelly Belly Factory Tour?

We spent about an hour and a half at the Jelly Belly Factory, though you could spend longer if you watch each video from beginning to end.

There You Have It: The Jelly Belly Factory Tour

We loved starting our road trip at the Jelly Belly Factory Tour. We could spend as little or as much time as liked. I would have loved a more in-depth tour of what was happening below us, but the kids didn’t have the patience for more. Overall we all learned a lot and had an excuse to eat some delicious jelly beans, and stock up on irregular Belly Flops for the rest of our road trip!
