Unfortunately, it's made in very small batches to maintain creamy mint quality, and it doesn't travel well. Graetter's wants to compete with PennState Creamery and is considering opening a small-batch processing plant in State College. But they have to figure out how to ship the special chocolate chips in from their Ohio chocolate manufacturing center while maintaining quality.
