About Candies, fudge, chocolate, prepared-from-recipe
Homemade chocolate fudge is built from sugar, cocoa, butter, and milk cooked to soft-ball stage and beaten until it sets. The result is dense and sweet, with fat from butter and carbohydrates from the sugar and cocoa as the main contributors. There is a touch of fiber from cocoa solids and minimal protein from the milk. The texture is firm yet yielding, distinctly different from commercial fudge which often uses shortcuts to avoid the precise temperature work. Rich and very sweet, a small piece is usually enough.
