4. Milton Hershey was born in 1857 and raised in a rural area of Central Pennsylvania. The photo above is of the Homestead, the birthplace of Milton Hershey. This building is still standing today. Following a 4 year apprenticeship with a Lancaster candy company, Milton attempted to start his own candy company in Philadelphia, PA but it failed. He moved to Denver, Co. and learned how to make caramels with fresh milk, moved to New York City, opened a candy business there but it also failed. http://www.mhs-pa.org/history/the-homestead

5. Still not discouraged, he moved back to Lancaster, PA and opened up another candy shop. This time he was successful!!!! In 1893, at the World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Milton discovered the art of chocolate making. He had machines shipped to Lancaster to make chocolate coating for his caramels. Because the demand for chocolate was growing at this time, Milton created the Hershey Chocolate Company and began perfecting his chocolate recipe containing the perfect mixture of milk, cocoa and sugar. The Hershey bar was soon shipped all over the country and enjoyed by millions of people, not just the wealthy. "Give them quality. That’s the best kind of advertising in the world.“ Milton S.

8. In the early 1900’s Milton decided to sell his caramel company and focus primarily on making chocolates.
