Following a great dinner at college on Friday, I spent Saturday morning at the Fudge Kitchen in Cambridge where Nigel taught me to make fudge. A very useful skill! It was really hard work but the end result very pretty good - that's my fudge in the photo!!! I was also taught how to make a very easy fudge icing but microwaving a slice of their fudge with 2 tablespoons of double cream for a minute to produce an instant fudge topping! I will be trying this very soon and will post the results! All in all a very yummy morning!
ah, but can you make tablet? Far superior to fundge, IMHO, but being Scottish I suppose I am just a bit biased ;0)

Oh yum, I love fudge.
ReplyDeleteHi - that fudge shop is very tempting isn't it!!!
ReplyDeletebut what I really can't resist are Fitzbillies Chelsea Buns - now that is a real Cambridge afternoon tea time treat. They are really uniquely sticky and spicy and totally yummy!!!
Maybe you could invent a "Homage to Fitzbillies Chelsea Bun" cake?
all the best

ReplyDeleteyum - it looks gorgeous -how do you get it that shape. I pour mine into a tin and cut in squares. Yours looks as thought its been shaped into a log and sliced?
ReplyDeleteIt is made into a log shape by folding it on marble. As the fudge cools down you fold one side of the fudge over towards the middle and then repeat on the otherside. You keep doing this until it sets. Sadly I don't think that this is something that would be easy to do at home unless you have a large marble table!
ReplyDeleteWow! Very labour intensive, but it looks gorgeous and I bet it tastes fabulous too!!
