What it is
A rich pale fudge made with clotted cream, softer and more buttery than a standard fudge, with a distinct dairy flavour.
Taste
Where it comes from
Clotted cream is a South West of England speciality, made by slowly heating full cream milk until a thick crust forms, and it has protected status when made in Cornwall and Devon. Adding it to fudge produces a noticeably richer sweet, and clotted cream fudge became the standard gift shop sweet of the West Country.
What it's made of
Sugar, glucose syrup, condensed milk and clotted cream boiled to the soft ball stage and beaten as it cools. The higher fat content makes it softer and shortens its shelf life.
