I picked out chocolate with crunchie for me, chocolate orange for my papa, chocolate with mars bar for mama and Phil had halves of strawberry and aero and vanilla and twirl.
I had a piece of mine with a cup of tea as soon as we got back.
I was inspired by the shop and decided to have a go at making some fudge myself...
I used this recipe but omitted the nuts.
It was really simple to do, just melting the chocolate and butter in with the condensed milk, sieving in the icing sugar (which I only remembered after I'd thrown a load of it in, hence the white speckles) and then pouring it into the tin and then putting it in the fridge to set.
The loaf tin I used wasn't ideal, it made it hard to get the fudge out. I was a bit disappointed that the fudge was a bit too squidgy too. I'm told I shouldn't have used icing sugar and used sugar instead... I'll try that next time!
Have you made fudge before?
I've walked past that shop in Scarborough a couple of times and it looks absolutely amazing...!
ReplyDeleteI've never made fudge before, but just reading your post makes me think it could be quite a good idea for Christmas presents? Might have to do some research.
