How to Easily Cut the Fudge

When cutting fudge, carefully wipe the knife blade between cuts with a clean damp towel. This prevents the fudge from building up on the blade, ensuring clean cuts that leave the edges intact.

How to Store

Store fudge in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

Make It Easy

For easy removal from pan before cutting into pieces, line empty pan with foil or parchment paper, with ends extending over sides. Then, use the foil handles to remove from pan before cutting into pieces.
