What Is Fudge?
Fudge is a kind of flavored, extremely rich confection. The preparation of Fudge is done by boiling sugar in milk till the soft-ball stage arrives, and then beating the same mixture during its cooling process to obtain a smooth, creamy consistent sweet. With a history of more than 100 years behind it, Fudge is a drier variant of fondant.

Controlled crystallization process of the extra saturated sugar lick balls solution is the secret behind the smoothness of fudge. The process initiating the premature rapid crystallization before the desired time will give the end product of fudge with fewer, larger sugar grains.

Note
One of the most significant aspects of any fudge making is the appropriate temperature. It is the difference in the temperature that separates fudge from hard caramel. If the temperature is higher, then the solubility of sugar is more. As there is more evaporation of water takes place; which results in a higher sugar to water ratio. Fudge is made at the Soft Ball stage which varies by altitude and ambient humidity from 235-240 °F or 113-116 °C.
