Preparation
Can strawberry fudge be made ahead of time?
Yes, this recipe can be made a few days in advance. Store in the fridge in an airtight container until ready to serve.
What kind of chocolate to use for strawberry fudge?
We used strawberry flavored pink candy melts. If you can’t find the strawberry flavored variety, regular pink candy melts will work. Just add ½ tsp of strawberry extract to the melted frosting.
Do you need a candy thermometer to make fudge?
This strawberry fudge recipe does not require a candy thermometer and can be made using the microwave or stove top.
To make strawberry fudge on the stove top, simply add the two ingredients to a sauce pan and heat on medium heat until completely melted and smooth.
Storage and leftovers
How long does strawberry fudge last?
These will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Can strawberry fudge be frozen?
Yes, best practice is to wrap the fudge tightly in plastic wrap before it is cut and place it in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge and enjoy!
Tips, tricks, and frequently asked questions
✅ For more strawberry flavor, add in ½ tsp of strawberry extract to the melted frosting and stir before adding to the chocolate mixture.
✅ Definitely line your pan with parchment paper, this will make removing and slicing so much easier.
✅ Allowing the fudge to set in the fridge for a few hours before slicing will make it easier to get clean sharp cuts.
✅ Swiping the knife with vegetable oil will also help give you a perfectly clean cut!
What to enjoy with homemade strawberry fudge (serving suggestions)
