Your enthusiasm and clear precise explanation of the process of fudge making particularly with regards to the importance of temperature is the best I've seen on YT.
Thanks for posting.
Love the way you you explained everything so well, great host!!! Thank you for explaining altitude. That explains why other videos cooking instructions don't make sense Eager to see the rest of your content !!!!
Thank you so much! Yes the altitude can be tricky but once you know the secret it makes cooking so much easier!
Totally agree. Thank you !!!!
I love your personality and how you interact with the camera / viewers. Love your recipes keep the videos coming:)
Thank you! That is so sweet of you to say!
I like the detailed way you explain the recipes.The first recipe is like " brigadeiros". The other recipes is harder to do bc we do not have " butterscotch syrup ,or marshmellow cream.It is not something we use in my country, but i think some of the things you teach can be try with less processed ingredients like ( condensed milk,sugar,glucose,cream etc).
Thank you! yes there are a lot of ways to make these recipes thats one of the reasons I love food!
Thanks for sharing I'll try your ways and see which one we like better
Boill sweetened condensed milk in the can. Keep the can covered with water, for 3 hours....when you open it, you will have the perfect caramel syrup, can be used in a pie, over ice cream or in fudge.
It works, I've done that too
Boil sweetened condensed milk is called " Dulce de Leche" in my country. It is a milk jam used in several countries like Argentina,Uruguay,Chile.We use it in several desserts.
Also remember to cool the can for at least an hour before opening
That is so delicious, I have a brother in law that will eat it straight out of the can. Eating it plain is a little bit too much for me but it is an amazing topping!
Peanut butter fudge....oh my word, heavenly x
it really is, probably my favorite!
Came to learn how to make proper fudge, stayed for the hair. XD I look freaking terrible with short hair or I would 100% do something like that. Looks amazing on people who can pull it off.
And yeah, the fudge was cool too. XD I'm probably going to stick to the microwave for now, but I'm definitely gonna try the rocky road one at some point when I'm brave enough to try this on a stove. :D
Aw thank you! That is so sweet of you but I am sure you would look great with short hair, it does take a little bit of courage but it is totally worth it!
DELICIOUS!!
I love the traditionally candy fudge, it's the best fudge in my opinion.
Great video as always!
agreed - and thank you so very much!
Definitely making the butterbeer fudge for the holidays :) I ♡ Harry Potter♡
Yay! Yes harry potter is the best, that would be a fun movie marathon over the holiday break:)
Love your recipes, they are fantastic!
thank you so very much!! that is so kind of you!
I too am an "Ashley Marie" first name spelled different but still counts lol. I also am a baker and this past week i have mastered old fashioned chocolate and peanut butter fudge. Super cool
That is so cool! You have the best name ever haha. I am so glad you were able to master those recipes:)
I can't wait to make that rocky road fudge!!! You are amazing!
Thank you so much! I hope it turned out well for you!
It all looks great
Ooh deff gonna try this out! I’m looking for a creamy constancy that’ll melt in my mouth
It's so good! I hope that this recipe can give you what you're looking for
this is exactly what i was looking for. Thank you so much! 🤍
You are so welcome:)
Great recipes, Ashlee! What type of pan is that? I love it!
Thank you!! I use a couple different pans in this video, which one were you thinking of?
I almost ate my phone that looked so good!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Wow! I never knew about altitude!
Most people dont and it makes such a big difference! I hope you will find more success in your recipes now:)
All looks delicious! What brand of chips chocolate wafers did you use?
Very interesting and informative video..thanks for sharing..
One question ..what brand thermometer do you use...?
Thank you! All of my cooking equipment can be found in my amazon store, www.amazon.com/shop/ashleemariecake
2 seconds in, and I already subscribed!!!
awww thank you so much!
Our fudge recipe was handed down from my great grandmother, who came to the usa straight from Norway, she passed it to my grandmother, who passed it to my mother, who pased it to me....home made, scratch, sugar, milk and cocoa powder.....or peanut butter, or vanilla, even maple...all from the base mix....and my grandmothers would spin in their graves if we did not use the soft ball stage, and stored it in the fridge.
That sounds like an amazing recipe. I love it when recipes can bring families together both in current times and through the generations. Keep that recipe going!
Thank you for your services.👍
Thank you so much!
Hello, Ashlee Marie! I'm a new subscriber and really like many of your recipes. I like how you explain everything and make it look so easy. I'm used to weighing certain ingredients when baking. I want to try making the microwave fudge. (I don't have a candy thermometer yet.) Would the 3 cups of chocolate called for in the microwave fudge total 24 ounces? I use Trader Joe's chocolate chunks and chips. I also buy their big bar and cut up the chocolate. Thank you for your help. (On a side note, like your hair colors in your videos. I recently completed chemo, and my hair is growing out salt and pepper. I've thought of putting color in my hair, and I've gotten ideas from your videos. Thanks.)
Thank you so much! A cup of chocolate chips is usually about 6 oz so if you have a 24 oz bag you will have plenty of chocolate. You are amazing for getting through chemo, I wish you good luck on your recovery! I am so glad my crazy hair preferences gave you some ideas:)
They look delicious. I would love to know what the measurements are for the recipes
They’re all in the description

You are amazing! I'd like to put in an order.............
Thank you so much, you are so sweet.
Do you have to put the fudge
Mixer, in the freezer?
Why, can this stays out to firm
By its self
I LOVE your channel, hope to be as good as youin a future! Send you love from Venezuela
of course you can be! it just takes getting in there and trying it and figuring it out! I'm totally self taught with trial and error and research!
Thanks for the upload!!!
No thank you for the support!:)
Yummy
A child was definitely yelled at, at 4:45 lololol
Haha I just asked them to grab something, I try not to yell at my kids:)
@@Ashleemariecakes if we had reacts on comments I would have loved your reply but I can only like lol
Just found your channel and subscribed. I have a question about fudge that maybe you can answer. My Grandmother has a recipe for Martha Washington Fudge (which is a vanilla fudge.) It is a stove top recipe that requires taking the fudge to a soft ball stage. We have made this recipe several times and never have a consistent turnout. Sometimes it is perfect and other times it doesn't seem to set well. My Grandmother lived in Akron, OH and never had problems. I live in Greenville, SC. Do you think it is altitude or humidity that is causing the problem or what?
BOTH! humidity, altitude AND changes in the barometer (like a storm coming in) all effect candy making - when I was in AZ at sea level with no humidity and no weather changes my candy was PERFECT every single time - I thought I was a GENIUS - then I moved and started having issues again - grrrr. Anyway test your boiling point to see what the softball stage is for you and try that first - winter is a good time to make it since it's less humid - and try for a sunny day - with no storm coming it and see if it works out
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. My mom will be so happy to hear this. Her mom died before I was born and she loves that fudge. We just stopped making it all together. Think we will try it again.
Just went back and watched your Q&A videos and see you are in TN. You should totally check out the Hendersonville and Asheville NC area. Asheville is starting to get a pretty good food scene. There is the Biltmore Estate and Gardens, the Biltmore Vineyard, lots of B&Bs, great antique shopping. Hendersonville is a great small town. Love the downtown area. Still easy to park in downtown Hendersonville. This area has great antique shopping and some great apple orchards nearby. Hendersonville has an Apple Festival every year in the fall. While you are in the area you could drive to Chimney Rock, NC and Lake Lure, NC. Chimney Rock State Park has some great hiking. You can see Chimney Rock from Lake Lure. There is one main road running through Chimney Rock. Keep driving on that road and you enter Lake Lure. The lake is beautiful. The original Dirty Dancing was filmed at Lake Lure. Nell was filmed at Lake Lure. The Last of the Mohicans was filmed in Chimney Rock State Park. There is an old Kathleen Turner movie that was also filmed at Lake Lure. I recommend avoiding the are in the winter. The damn on the lake is lowered and they dredge the lake in the winter. Not pretty. Plus a lot of the restaurants are closed. But it would be a great day trip from Asheville to go to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure and another great day trip to go to Hendersonville.
let me know how the fudge turns out! and I'm actually not in TN, after all, but thanks for the tips!
Frangelico with chopped hazelnuts. Chocolate with Brazil or macadamia nuts

Thank you, I will add it to my list:)
Excelente
Thank you so much!
Can't wait to try this 🤗🤗🤗

Such an awesome and informative video! Peanut butter fudge is my favorite! Awesome channel, gained a new sub from me! :) P.S. girl, your hair is amazing!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it - seriously this PB fudge is AMAZING! and thx for subbing, I hope you enjoy what we have coming up! and thx - gotta love fun hair, right?
I can't wait to see your upcoming videos! I've been binge watching your past videos, and I love them! And yes, fun hair makes it all the better! :D
Would Ghirardelli chocolate be a good chocolate to use?
Ghirardelli should work great, one of my favorite chocolate brands
can you help me ive been trying to make vanilla fudge on the stove and its failed 3 times i cook it to 116oC and let it cool to 110oC and beat it with a wooden spoon then pour into a tin and it doesnt set over night
Baileys fudge so yummy
Fudge is such a good desert, and there are SO many delicious types.
i soooo love your hair 😍😍😍
thank you!
Soooo....if I want to use your homemade caramel (because its' divine), do you think I should just melt it down, or maybe add some cream to thin it? That beer butter fudge is calling me... haha!
you mean as a sauce for making fudge?? I have a buttery caramel sauce already - th-cam.com/video/jat1BnmKPBI/w-d-xo.html I'll have to think about that - the best way to turn one of the caramels into a fudge...
Can you please make more fudge videos with healthy version for diabetics? Thank you 😊
I'm so sorry - I don't specialize in diabetic recipes - I honestly wouldn't know where to start to create something that was safe - one of my dear friends is diabetic and runs a blog where she makes other bloggers recipes diabetic friendly alldayidreamaboutfood.com/ she'd be a great place to start
If I am 19 ft above sea level I shouldn’t need to make any adjustments, correct? I’m about 2 miles from the ocean.
That is correct
Have you used your butterbeer sauce to make it
No I haven't, that would be fun to experiment with but this recipe is much easier.
Is thier a way to make fudge without condensed milk?
Fudge isn't a super simple thing to make, candies like this can be hard. There are other kinds though, some have marshmallow creme or something along those lines. It just depends on which recipe you choose, I would suggest finding a totally new recipe that messing with mine though, it can get tricky:)
I hope you see this soon but what do you do if you don’t have a gun, or candy thermometer
It is very hard to cook candy such as fudge without a candy thermometer, you can eyeball it and cook it until it has been boiling for a minute but it is not guaranteed to turn out every time. Thermometers are not very expensive and are a very nice tool to have for cooking so I would recommend just getting one. I have my thermometers listed in the description and on my amazon store www.amazon.com/shop/ashleemariecake.
love the hair color
thanks!!!!!
You look like Hades i lov it
Haha I'm not sure if I want to look like hades but thank you!
hi ashlee marie! how long do the fudges keep for in storage? and should they be kept in the fridge??
yes I refrigerate them - which is where they should be BUT it also dries them out - so they are safe to eat longer than they are "pretty" to eat. I'm going on a week and they are still totally fine - I'd avoid cutting them until you are ready to eat to keep them less dry if possible. they'd actualy last quite a long time if sealed properly
Ashlee Marie Cakes thank you!!
I'm going for the microwave kind. I've been trying for years to do fudge and everytime it turns out like taffy.
it's all about getting the tempurature right for your altitude, but yes the microwave one should totally work for you!
Which products do you use the
I am not sure what products you are referring to but you can find all of my ingredients and equipment on my amazon store www.amazon.com/shop/ashleemariecake
Unsalted or salted butter
Unsalted butter, you add salt in separately
Thank you Ashlee and Aunt Linn (sp?) :D
You are so welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
The problem with the butterbeer fudge is it has corn syrup in it. So of course if you follow the directions exactly you get taffy. Of course I trusted her and made it before I looked at what was in the smucker sauce. Please change the recipe or remove it. And before you ask I live at sea level and have experience in making both fudge and taffy from scratch.
I am not sure what went wrong but it is not like taffy at all, if you are worried about it you could get a different brand of butterscotch topping that doesn't have corn syrup but it should not effect the recipe. Corn syrup essentially keeps the sugar from becoming granulated, also helps with body and shine.
What is this thing about living above sea level...? I thought the stove was enough..
Why does tu/vous not say the ingredient amounts?
Nice demo but no specific quantities given
How about telling us how much on the ingredients
the full recipes are in the description box
Butterbeer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so good!
Ok. Why am i still confused on how to take each recipe and modify it to make different flavors? For example, I want to make a butterbeer fudge and cookies and cream fudge, but i want them to be the more traditional recipe and texture of fudge. How would i do that? I'm not a bad cook, but fudge confuses me.
Thanks for the recipes! And on a sidenote: your eyes are mesmerizing!
awwww thank you so very much! i appreciate that so much
3 cups of chocolate, some condensed milk, and some some butter. How much is 'some'? Why didn't you just say, a 'bunch' of chocolate? 3 cups seems kind of specific, when "some" is being used a measurement. I'm a baking idiot, so i need exact measurements. Other than that, i love your attitude.
I need a candy 🍬 thermometer 🌡😋
No cooling the fudge to 110 F what’s up with that
Every fudge recipe is different! There are so many ways to get a good fudge recipe
😋😋😋👌
Thank you so much!
@@Ashleemariecakes Y're welcome 😊
Measurement pls
The full recipe is in the description box or you can find it on my blog
didnt seeyou tasre the butterbeer one
I may have forgotten to film it but I definitely ate my fair share after the video haha
How abt the measurement pls
The recipe is in the description box.
I say peaCan, my friend says peaCon because the pee can is under the bed
Haha I have never thought about it like that
Do you even know that the "lazer thermometer" is not supposed to be directed to the skin or eyes???!!!
I haven't heard that thank you for warning me:)
loveya lady
Aw thank you so much
Ụ
I'm not sure what that means but thank you for watching!
Españooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool please!
I am so sorry I only speak english!
Why are you talking so fast? Is it a race?
Sorry about that! I will try to slow down in the future
@@Ashleemariecakes Thank you Ashlee. x
Hello
You are sweet

Diabetic coma
It is a lot of sugar but eating one piece at a time is totally doable:)
Sea level adjustment...wat a b.s. 👎👎👎
Please dont complicate simple things and koncepts ✡
I believe this lady is a good maker of fudge, and I agree with her on the microwave fudge. But, I don't feel the hairdo is flattering for her. Sorry hon.
to each his own.... enjoy the fudge though!
I like her hair :) I think it's cool.
Her hairdo is ABSOLUTELY flattering on her!!!! No where in this video is she asking for total stranger’s opinion on her hair. It’s about fudge. If you don’t have a question or comment about the subject matter of the video, perhaps you should not comment, you Raunchy Twat.
