The beautiful piece of art sits perfectly on the gleaming
white plate. Its indulging smell wafers faintly around your nose making you
want to snatch it and gobble it. The small clump of golden coloured sugar oozes
in your mouth, making you tingle and crave for more. Fudge is the most luscious
sweet because of the scrumptious ingredients in it, how it’s so easy and simple
to make and its marvellous history.
The most
simple and tasty ingredients creates something wonderful. Fudge is made of
sugar. That strong taste of sweetness which dissolves into pure happiness.
Sugar makes everything taste better… but
with a little bit of vanilla essence, it’s like you’re in heaven. Vanilla
essence is also a strong ingredient in fudge. A little droplet of it can fill
the whole room with its beautiful magic. Even though sugar and vanilla essence
are delicious ingredients, they don’t taste very nice by themselves so we need
a base to hold the two grand pieces. Milk, cocoa and butter and the pieces that
holds everything together. It’s the bit that makes fudge, fudge. These five
ingredients make a delicious sweet.
Fudge is an
easy and efficient food to make. It is suitable for a snack or for special
occasions. All you need to do is take sugar, vanilla essence and cocoa, whizz
them together and then there you have nice fudge. It takes five minutes to make
but then you’ve got to cool it. The cooling takes a while unfortunately, though
after the long wait, you’ll be glad you made it. This is a simple way to make
something delicious.
The history
behind fudge is amazing. It all started off in America when someone wanted to
make caramel but something went wrong so it ended up as fudge. Fudge was first
sold in a grocery store in 1886 for forty cents. A lady called Emelyn Battersby
Hartridge then asked for the recipe and made thirty pounds of it. This recipe
then became very popular at her school. The word spread to other women’s
colleges and to their delight, it had a divine taste, so then later on the
schools each developed their own recipe for fudge. This is how fudge got
developed and well known. it has a very interesting history.
As a result,
you can see how fudge is an appetising treat to have. There is a variety of
ingredients in it and it’s easy to make. The history of fudge is really
interesting and you wonder how all these coincident happen that ends up as
something wonderful.
