About Chocolate fudge

Chocolate fudge is a dense, sweet confection made by cooking sugar with ingredients such as chocolate or cocoa and dairy, then cooling it to set. It is commonly cut into small squares or pieces and eaten as a sweet. Its texture is typically soft and compact, with a rich, sweet chocolate flavour.

Recipes and commercial versions differ in their use of chocolate, cocoa, dairy, fats, and flavourings, as well as in cooking and setting methods. Fudge can range from smooth to slightly grainy or firm. The name describes a confection category, not a standard composition or a chocolate sauce.
