Erica Domen's left arm was severed as she cleaned a Hershey chocolate factory batter-sifting machine last year. Hershey is facing two criminal charges that allege the company did not secure safety checks on the machine that injured Domen.
OAKLAND -- Candy-making at the Sconza factory still relies on many of the old-fashioned techniques family members mastered during the company's 69 years of operation.
The company that is buying the vacated Hershey plant in Oakdale is highly respected in the confection industry, with popular candies and a rich family tradition. Sconza Candy Co. announced last week that it outgrew its Oakland factory and decided to relocate to Oakdale, where the firm will initially employ about 100 people. It expects to begin production in October.
