My Fudge Secrets
Good chocolate makes all the difference here. Never substitute the condensed milk evaporated just won't work. Love a little crunch? Toss in some nuts or crushed candy it's your canvas.
Make It Your Own
Sometimes I sprinkle coconut on top or fold in crushed peppermints during holidays. A handful of chopped nuts gives lovely texture and those colorful candies make it party perfect.
Perfect Pairings
This fudge loves a scoop of vanilla ice cream alongside. Try shaving frozen pieces over desserts for a fancy touch. A drizzle of warm caramel takes it straight to heaven.
Keeping It Fresh
Pop your fudge in an airtight container in the fridge it'll stay perfect for five days. Though in my house it rarely lasts that long. Want to save some for later? The freezer's your friend.

Freezer Tips
Cut into squares before freezing then you can grab just what you need. Wrap them well they'll keep their magic for three months. Just let them warm up gently before serving.
When Things Get Tricky
Soft fudge usually means someone grabbed evaporated milk by mistake. If it's grainy just slow down the melting process next time and keep stirring with love.
Creative Touches
Sometimes I swirl in peanut butter or caramel for extra indulgence. Dried cranberries add lovely chew and that sprinkle of sea salt on top? Pure heaven.
Sweet Memories
This fudge has become my signature treat. Whether I'm making holiday gifts or need a quick dessert fix it never fails to bring smiles. Simple ingredients lots of love and a little patience create something truly special.
