My Secret Can’t Fail Fudge Recipe Revealed!

So I have this secret fudge recipe on a scrap of printed paper from 12/9/99. It was a printout that I have held on to dearly.

Making fudge every Christmas has become “my thing”. People wait for it, beg for it, and demand the secret recipe. It was always my special thing, so I never divulged it. Giving them my famous fudge, ready-made was my gift. I would experiment every Christmas making different flavors and adding different ingredients to the base recipe.

Somewhere along the way, I stopped making it, I had lost the recipe, I searched online and could not find anything similar. Then this week, I found the recipe pushed to the back of my cupboard. I decided to google it again to see if there was a substitute for the marshmallows as I could only find mixed bags of Vanilla and Raspberry ones.

Here is my scrap of paper, 21 years old with my hand scribble for Australian supplies, note the 90cents for a bag for marshmallows, now selling for $2-4 depending on the brand. At $4 a bag I didn’t want to lose 1/2 of them to raspberry ones, I could not use. (unless making raspberry fudge of course)

Anyways to cut a long story short it turns out this recipe is carnations very very common recipe!! all these years I have been hanging on to it, like treasure and now thanks to modern-day internet it is literally everywhere. So technically it is not my secret recipe anymore, or maybe just a secret that this is the recipe I use.

Here is the original vintage recipe advertisement for Can’t fail fudge.

Here is the recipe is written out

4 cups of mini vanilla marshmallows = or 150g chopped

2/3 cup of evaporated milk

1/4 cup of butter

1 1/2 cups of sugar
