The history of fudge

- Our appetite for fudge dates back more than a century, when someone making candy allegedly "fudged" a recipe, and a chocolate staple was born. Correspondent Faith Salie visits northern Michigan, home to the "Fudge Capital of America," where more than a dozen fudge shops each makes, at their peak, more than three thousand pounds of fudge a week.

My college freshman chemistry professor used fudge as an example of the chemical principal of "Supersaturation ". And YES he made delicious fudge for the class to taste.
Mackinac Island fudge is absolutely incredible.
Mackinac Island has fudge but so much more. The waters of Huron, the gentle plod of horses, no cars, wonderful bike routes, fabulous history, beautiful sunsets and quaint as well as large accomodations.
One of my favorite places of all time
My mom made a tradition of making fudge any day we had 2” or more of snow (in MN & SD). My BIL watched 40 miles away, and drove my sister into town when it snowed. One of our best memories.
Fudge is always HISTORY at my house.
Thank you for this delightful segment! This brings back so many happy memories of my Mom’s home-made fudge. Valentine’s Day is in 2 days….. an excellent reason to bring out Mom’s recipe box, and stroll down Memory Lane with that Heavenly aroma filling the house!
Fudge is an upper Mid-West/Northern Rocky Mountain thing. My Dad got some every year from Christmas via Airmail and it was gone before breakfast.
My family is from Michigan but now live all over the country. For holidays and special occasions I send Murdick's fudge. It's always a welcome gift. The chocolate walnut tastes just like my grandmother used to make.
Our family have been going up to the Island for decades! Nobody leaves the area without the Fudge! It is the best we've ever had.
Never been a fudge fan, but this is was fun!
I liked the fudge my mom made. She used the Hershey’s Cocoa recipe, using a cast iron pot to cook the concoction. It had to be made when it was cool/cold and the humidity was low. Bringing the pot outside at right moment to help it “set” was crucial. I truly miss it.
That’s our recipe, too! Never liked the marshmallow ones.
TV
me too
Thank you for this delightful segment
Faith and Fudge. How clever, and sweet. 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫
Have NOT been to Mackinaw Island yet BUT I have been to Mackinaw City, St. Ignace, Traverse City, East Tawas, Frankenmuth & a place called Saugatuck, MI which all of those places have fudge!!!
Thank God for TH-cam am I slept in today but I still can watch CBS say this morning 40 years maybe only missed a couple times the show
Fact! A day without chocolate is a day without sunshine.
Never say "no" to chocolate.
Vassar was once a Presbyterian faith based school.
Sugar was seen as a Sin, as was Chocolate, Soda, and Pastries.
Women were expected to keep slim for their man.
This what why a Birthday cake were once such a HUGE thing in a home.
This is important.
fudge is really easy to make it is so delicious
I order this fudge several times a year. Delicious!
Yum!
I don't like fudge, but I love this episode.
Why don't you like fudge?
@@DillonTrinhProductions It's like eating a firm stick of butter. Not appealing.
God I love fudge 😋😊
Just a dumb european strolling through.... I have never heard of fudge before, i only knew it was some kind of soft texture in a sweet. Has this ever left the U.S. ?
We have Nougat and Marzipan here so maybe that need is filled already?
Love from Germany ❤
You should try making some! Some recipes call for marshmallow cream but you don’t have to use it. ❤
There are a number of fudge shops in London and Southern England. I believe it may even have reached Germany and Austria.
It’s its own thing and very rich tasting, marzipan and nougat are great too!
I LOVE FUDGE
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ our Island
Love it. Go get some Mackinac Island fudge… NOW!!!! Lol
Murdick’s is my favorite - first tried on Martha’s Vineyard
I love fudge, but one of the most disgusting flavors of fudge I ever tried was Key Lime...it was awful. Some things are not meant for fudge
agreeed, they need to stick with classic fudges
Have you tried fudge made with Velveeta cheese? Or how about the kind made with mayonnaise?
@@chromebomb including PB fudge!!! And maple fudge!!!!!
@@chromebomb including PB fudge!!! And maple fudge!!!!!
Fudge in your coffee? To each their own. Making fudge as a form of rebellion, interesting!
Oooh that looks so good! Shame I can't have sugar!! It just messes me up too bad :(
Another great story brought to us by Faith. 🥰
I love making fudge. My favorite is peanut butter
I’ve been there 2016, it was my first time in the USA 🇺🇸 as a tourist after I landed in Detroit at first, now I’m thousands miles away here in Qatar 🇶🇦 craving some 😔
💚💚💚
Do they Pack the Fudge also?
Theres a place in Philadelphia that makes great fudge. Shane Confectionery. its been at the same location for over a century.
Nice story however you left out a very important fact. The ideal latitude and atmospheric conditions on Mackinac Island is the greatest contributor to the successful production of fudge. It is at this lattitude, and at the analogous one in the southern hemisphere, that defines this zone as the "fudge belt" and it so happens that Mackinac Island is at its epicenter along with many other ideal locations throughout the belt.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mmmmm, doooonut.....I mean fuuuuudge. 😆
I love fudge, but I can only eat it in moderation.
Maine has the best fudge
Just think of how many of our common dishes were result of the mistake.
Like chocolate chip cookies! (and potato chips were created because a cook was frustrated with a customer )
Fudge!
🍫❤️💖👍
They have shops on another island…Martha’s Vineyard!
Fudge is more important than a train derailment...
It looked like some dr. Fudged the reporters face
I trained with that dude back in the day!
I also know where the Milk and Lemon Aid are made.
Looks good but way too sugary
can't make fudge without a lot of sugar. it is what it is.
Faith needs to do something about those brows
3:19
Noice..!!
They also pack fudge in Green Bay, hence the team name.
I never knew people in the north had fudge.
Fudge brownies heart shaped valentine's
At least they don’t use corn syrup
My Mama made wonderful Fudge, and always added Corn Syrup.
I love chocolate, but I’ve never been a fan of fudge.
Once you have VERY GOOD FUDGE, you will love it!
As a certified fudge packer I know a thing or two about fudge.
The thumbnail looks like meatloaf, not fudge
Two ingredient recipe condensed milk and chocolate chips
def that's one great way!!!
Where tom cruise??
Packing the fudge.
Cars not allowed in mackinaw idland
A mask needs to be worn to prevent workers' saliva from spraying around.
Lol
True. We don't workers turning Homer Simpson on us while making it goin "hmmmm fudge..." Salving all the way!
There are fudge recipes from England in the 1700s. Like Apple pie, it's not American.
It absolutely is American. No recipes for fudge came out of England in the 1700s or after. The closest thing to a fudge in Europe was Tablet and that's being generous since the texture and flavor is completely different. Take the L and move on Limey
In the recipe book ‘The Forme of curry’ from 1390 in England,there is a recipe for nut fudge or harder nut brittle,but they didn’t call it fudge at the time!
2:30 so women can pack fudge too
I was waiting for a fudge-packing comment. Thanks!
@@florinest I was waiting for it too, but I became impatient...lol
You sure this isn't the history of meat loaf?
Ah yes. The appropriate break from shooting down of non-alien 🛸
Not a fudge fan.
I'm from Michigan and I think fudge is gross. It's an overly-sugary slimy paste that doesn't exactly taste like chocolate. Fudge is the epitome of 'Murican.
don’t make it, buy it, or eat it then. i’m pretty sure none of us consider it a Food Group all on it’s own. for my family, it’s a simple but deep connection to place, time, and people we love. it doesn’t define us, any of us. those of you with such condescending comments.... i’m not going to finish that sentence.
Good fudge is the best fkin thing ever. Especially loaded with nuts.
