šŸ“œ History & Formation

Fudge, in its most traditional form, dates back to the late 19th century in the U.S., and since then it has evolved into countless versionsā€”from classic chocolate to festive unicorn-inspired colors. Bubblegum Cloud Fudge is a more recent, modern twist, often tied to pop cultureā€™s fascination with fantasy aesthetics like “cotton candy skies” and “unicorn food.” This version uses white chocolate as the base and bubblegum extract to evoke playful childhood memories.

šŸ§‚ Ingredients

  • 21 Ā¼ ounces (600g) white chocolate, finely chopped or chips
  • Ā¾ cup (180ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Ā½ teaspoon bubblegum extract (adjust to taste)
  • Gel food coloring (light blue, pink, lavender ā€“ optional but magical)
  • Sprinkles, edible glitter, or mini marshmallows (optional for topping)
  • Pinch of salt

šŸ„£ Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Pan

  • Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy lifting later. Set aside.

Step 2: Melt the Base

  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.
  • Stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  • Add a pinch of salt and stir in the bubblegum extract.

Step 3: Divide & Color (Optional)

  • Divide the fudge mixture into 2ā€“3 bowls if you’d like to color it.
  • Tint each portion with a few drops of your chosen gel food color. Mix well.

Step 4: Swirl to Perfection

  • Drop spoonfuls of each colored fudge randomly into the prepared pan.
  • Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled effect.
  • Optional: Sprinkle with edible glitter, rainbow sprinkles, or crushed candy.

Step 5: Chill & Set

  • Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 3ā€“4 hours or until fully set.
  • Once firm, lift the fudge out using the parchment overhang and slice into squares.

šŸ”¬ Methods & Tips

  • Melting Tips: Always melt chocolate slowly on low heat to avoid seizing. Stir constantly.
  • Extract Control: Bubblegum extract is strongā€”start with a little and taste as you go.
  • Color Swirling: Donā€™t over-swirl or the colors will blend too much. Go for a gentle marbled look.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
