Milton Hershey's first successful candy making making business was selling caramel. He started the Lancaster Caramel Company. In 1900, he decided that since his best selling items were caramels dipped in chocolate that he wanted to pursue chocolate making.

He sold his caramel company and with the proceeds bought 30 acres of dairy farm land and started perfecting his own recipe for good tasting and affordable milk chocolate (at the time milk chocolate was an expensive luxury).
