About Fudge
Fudge is a rich, sweet confection made primarily from sugar, butter, and milk or cream, often flavored with chocolate, vanilla, or nuts. Originating in the United States in the late 19th century, fudge has become a beloved treat worldwide, particularly in Western cuisines. Its smooth texture and intense sweetness make it a popular dessert or gift item. While fudge is a good energy source thanks to its high sugar content, it is not considered a health food due to its caloric density and lack of significant nutrients. The inclusion of nuts can provide a modest amount of healthy fats and protein, but overall, fudge should be enjoyed in moderation. Variations using dark chocolate may offer minimal antioxidants, yet the high levels of saturated fats and sugars still make it a treat best reserved for occasional indulgence.
