June 16 - National Fudge Day


Happy National Fudge Day! Today comes around each year on June 16, allowing you to indulge in your favorite flavor of this delicious confectionery. 


Some of the most familiar fudge flavors are chocolate, chocolate nut, peanut butter, maple, and maple nut.  


Fudge lends itself to experimentation when it comes to flavors. Blending favorites or even a moment of inspiration will create a new delicious kind of fudge. 


Also, adding bits of candy, nuts or sprinkles can bring just the right celebratory burst of excitement to an old favorite. 


In the late 19th century, some shops on Mackinac Island, Michigan, began to produce similar products as the Vassar College fudge and sold it to summer vacationers. Fudge is still made in some of the original shops located on the famous island.  


Three other fudge holidays entice us to celebration as well. Check out May 12 to celebrate all of those nutty fudges for National Nutty Fudge Day.
