Blue Ribbon Recipe by

This is a fudge I used to make at Christmas when I owned my own shop. It was so popular that after the second year, I sold it by request only because it was that good. This fudge is excellent, but you must pay attention to detail. You also need to use quality chocolate. I use Ghirardelli but feel free to use another brand of like quality. I give this at Christmastime. Never more the a piece or two per person because it is expensive and extremely rich. I wrap each piece in clear cellophane, put it in a cellophane bag, and tie it with red and green ribbon.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

If chocolate fudge isn't your favorite, try this ivory fudge. We opted to add chopped pecans to the fudge. The nuts, along with the caramel flavor, made this taste like butter pecan fudge. If you always had to have it from the mall or pick up a pound while on vacation, this ivory fudge recipe will let you make the same caliber fudge at home. Once you get the recipe down, you'll make this fudge again and again.
