Hot Honey Fudge

"At its core, English fudge has a remarkably simple formulation: it’s basically just milk, sugar, and butter cooked together until it turns solid, crumbly, and delicious. And yet, you can absolutely tell the difference when someone who really knows what they’re doing makes fudge. That simplicity turns into an absolute asset, allowing fudge to become a vehicle for all sorts of disparate flavors and sensations. In the case of Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Fudge, for instance, we turned to a supplier from the U.K. whose fudge expertise is second to none. They flavor this rich and buttery Fudge with sweet and ever-so-slightly floral Honey that’s been spiced with Hot chili pepper extract, making every bite a superlatively satisfying exercise in toothsome textures, sugar-y sweet notes, and gently escalating peppery heat. Great for enjoying as a quick, summer-y sweet treat, or as part of a more elaborate dessert spread, our Hot Honey Fudge is available in our stores June through August. It’s a great gift option for any friends or family who enjoy a little heat with their sweet. And we particularly enjoy pairing with a hot coffee, an iced milk tea, or even a glass of whiskey."
