What is the secret to good fudge?
The key is to use great ingredients. Melt the chocolate over low heat. This helps to prevent separation and burning.
Why isn’t my chocolate fudge setting?
This can happen if there is too much liquid. Adhere strictly to the measurements. Then, refrigerate the fudge until it’s firm all the way through.
Should fudge be hard or soft?
It should be creamy and firm but not hard or crumbly.
What causes fudge to be grainy?
Graininess occurs when the sugar remains in solid form instead of melting completely. Melt the chocolate mixture with precision to ensure an even consistency.
What happens when fudge goes bad?
Spoiled fudge usually feels hard or stale. It might also smell or taste bad.
Why is my fudge watery?
Too much liquid or improper mixing can cause the fudge to remain watery. Stick to the recommended conditions for best results.
What is the ideal fudge texture?
Smooth and creamy, the texture is slightly firm, offering a melt-in-your-mouth quality.
What happens if you overheat fudge?

How can I make fudge last longer?
Please place it in an airtight container in a fridge or freezer to expand durability.
How to make fudge crumbly?
