Many local chocolatiers use Guittard chocolate to make their artisanal candies, and Guittard also has its own line of bean-to-bar single origin and blended bars.<\/p>\n<p>This is company headquarters and also the factory for specialty and limited-edition products with vintage equipment and proprietary processes. The main factory is in Fairfield, but neither location is open to the public.<\/p>\n<h3>CBTB Tip<\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s no retail store here or tour of the facilities, but the area around the factory smells amazing. Take a seat in the small courtyard and breathe in the delicious chocolate aroma.<\/p>\n<h3>Read more on CBTB:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Permanent Link to \u201cCraft chocolate party\u201d\" href=\"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/local-chocolate\/ourchocolatiers\/craft-chocolate-party\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Craft chocolate party<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/local-chocolate\/san-francisco-chocolate\/chocolate-heaven\/\">Chocolate heaven<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/outsidechocolate\/a-real-treat\/\">A real treat<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/local-chocolate\/ourchocolatiers\/pioneers-veterans-of-sfba-artisan-chocolate\/\">Pioneers &amp; veterans of SFBA artisan chocolate<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/local-chocolate\/ourchocolatiers\/2014-salon-this-time-its-personal\/\">2014 Salon: This time, it\u2019s personal<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> One of San Francisco&#8217;s original chocolate companies \u2014 and those in the know consider it the best of the OCC&#8217;s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32228,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"single-tourpage.php","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1059,146,15,483,500],"tags":[282,1325,1327,1316,1073,356,1468],"class_list":["post-4889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-listed-chocolate-maker","category-listingssfba","category-local-chocolate","category-tour-stop-sf-peninsula","category-tour-stop","tag-bean-to-bar","tag-burlingame","tag-chocolate-attraction","tag-chocolate-factory","tag-chocolate-maker","tag-guittard-chocolate-company","tag-listing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4889"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4889\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44422,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4889\/revisions\/44422"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chocolatebythebay.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
