Sugar (likely Michigan sugar for authenticity)
Fresh cream
Chocolate (for classic chocolate fudge)
Optional: Add-ins like nuts, flavorings (e.g., vanilla), or other flavor variations like peanut butter or sea salt caramel.
Cooking : Combine sugar, cream, and other ingredients in a saucepan and cook to a specific temperature (usually measured with a candy thermometer).
Pouring : Pour the hot mixture onto a cold marble slab to cool down.
Mixing : As the fudge cools, mix and fold it to achieve the desired smooth and creamy texture.
Shaping : Shape the fudge into loaves or pieces for cutting once fully set.
Notes
Traditional fudge-making emphasizes the use of high-quality, natural ingredients and the cooling process on marble slabs to achieve a smooth texture.
Modern variations may include flavor customizations or dietary adjustments (e.g., vegan or gluten-free options).
