Method

  1. Line a 22cm square non-stick tin with baking parchment. Put the caster sugar, double cream and liquid glucose in a pan. Slowly heat together, stirring continually, until the sugar melts and stops feeling grainy on the bottom of the pan. Turn up the heat and fast boil until a small amount of the mixture dropped into a glass of cold water sets into a soft ball that you can pick up on a teaspoon. By this time the bubbles in the mixture will look small and even.
  2. Turn off the heat and keep stirring for 5 mins or until the mix starts to thicken a little. Sprinkle in the white chocolate and swirl it through the mixture once using a spatula or the handle of a wooden spoon. Pour into a tin and leave the fudge overnight to set, then turn out and cut into squares. Will keep for up to 2 months in an airtight container - don't store in the fridge or the fudge will go soft.

    Absolutely delicious. Followed the recipe to the letter. Made half a batch just to test it out but it's divine so will be making two full batches as Christmas presents. Thank you Lulu Grimes!

    Made this for presents this Christmas. Absolutely wonderful recipe and fabulous fudge. I used a thermometer and boiled until soft ball. Added dried cherries for a bit of colour. Will make again.

    I made this last night as a last minute gift. I halved the quantities as only needed about a 1lb of fudge, I also added a bit of vanilla extract for extra flavour, which went nicely, and although got it to soft ball stage didn't simmer for loo long as I wanted a more soft fudge.

    really easy to make - i managed without a sugar thermometer and it took about 20mins to get to soft ball stage. followed some of the tips from previous comments: stop stirring once the sugar has dissolved and then continuously stir again for 10mins after taking ioff the heat.

    Made this for Christmas presents this year - 2 separate batches - both turned out perfectly. Didn't use a thermometer, but followed advice from here and stopped stirring once boiling (even though the temptation to stir is overwhelming!!). About 15 mins to get to the soft ball stage and then beat like crazy once off the heat. Had great feedback - one person saying it was the nicest thing they'd ever eaten!! Definitely on the list for next year.

    This is the best fudge recipe ever!! if you cut the white chocolate up in to thin pieces, and mix it in on the hob for a minute, you get a much smoother fudge. All my friends beg for me to make them this fudge for their birthdays!!
