A Chocolate Morsel

For a lack of a better way to understand Kostanay, I have become interested in a big private employer, the Bayan Sulu Chocolate Factory (Google-translated link), which opened in 1974. I discovered this factoid on the Kostanay page of Twin Towns, which seems to be a first-hand report. Their products fill the stores here and include fruit and other confections. We'll see if they give tours of the factory. Good photos are on their website anyways; maybe that will be as close as I get. -- Robertson

I hope you get to tour that local chocolate/candy factory! Who'd have thought that Kostany boasted an such an endearing treat! Maybe you could buy (or make) T-shirts with one of the candy logos. Could be neat a conversation opener.
