thank you! I haven't seen anyone show the whole process of making fudge and I've been searching. my grandmother used to make it so much she had 7 flavors she was known for, when she passed on i got her recipes but never actually perfected hers, my own come out wonderful but nothing beats history, watching this reminds me as a kid I'd watch the work she put into it.. you gotta love your job
I have never seen this done before.This was so fun to watch,I loved it.You definitely have to know what your doing and you certainly do.This is a craft not just anyone could do,i certainly couldn't.I really enjoyed this,thank you.
This is fascinating to watch. I am trying to learn more traditional ways of making things. Fudge is at the top of the list. I'd love to see more videos.
Incroyable !! Cette dame maîtrise parfaitement le produit !! On sent les gestes répétés X fois !! Rares sont les femmes qui doivent faire ce travail j'imagine ... Bravo Madame !! J'adore le caramel et là ... je salive devant mon écran !! Miam Miam... Paris (France)
yaay! another one! thanks! this video is a very nice one, especially in the beginning, I get to follow what she was doing very clearly. details were captured quite neatly. please keep uploading some new ones! similar to this one. I truly love it!!!
My mom made her fudge and taffy in this manner hated the work as a kid but loved the end product I wish I had been a better student to her, God rest her beautiful heart Wish I had the recipes still, lost in a house firer and had learnt all the best of the best treats none of that junk they pass out in stores wow the memories pulling taffy with my sisters and making fudge and nugget treats and soooo many more
Have read the other comments and I do not care what it is called, I enjoyed watching your skill in making the fudge and if it tastes as good as it looks I'm up for it. Thank you.
I love your outfit! And the clever, efficient design of the table (the spaces for the bars to hang out of the way when you don't want them) and the way you mix the candy on the table - fascinating technique in action.
We call it the poor man's fudge. My grandfather made this in WW2.. it was an treat to get hold of the evaporated milk. Loved the prep video. You must have muscles of steel..
this is really incredible, it looks so beautiful, the color is so pleasant,this is talent, and i just like the way you are so confident, this deserves a doctorate, with love from Walvis Bay, Namibia
Wow it's a slice of bread fudge as large as a slice of bread first time seeing fudge made this way was nice to see how things r being done in other parts of the world
I couldn't really enjoy this video as much because of the camera work. I would have enjoyed it zoomed out a bit and maybe somewhere stationary just to see more of you working the fudge as well as the fudge itself! I enjoy your videos and seeing the entire process. Sorry if this offends, not my intension.
WOW, you have turned Fudge making into an Art, it was fascinating to watch each stage of the fudge 'coming together'. Could you perhaps supply a homemade version/recipe? What is it that turns what appears to be a caramel into a fudge? The working of it perhaps? I really enjoyed this though you must be very tired by the end, such hard work but such a fabulous end product and the hygienic element is to be commended. Thank you so much for this I saved to watch again. Wonderful video, Paula UK x
YYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMM!!!! to this day of living in Qld Australia for 30years, I still haven't found a decent Russian fudge like i remember in my hometown of Palmerston North days growing up in my teens. :(
wow i loved watching this. i would of taken a swim in there oof it loogs so good. and i was watching all the arm movements and hands i would of given up on my arms lol. looks so good
O my Goodness, my shoulders are aching just watching you do this then the video progressed and my elbows were aching then it went to my Wrists and hands! Of course, it all started in the back! But you know, I would watch it again and again, it looks so yummy. I wish I were back in Ausiland to get a sample. The way you work with the fudge is grand and to have a small bite and a cup of Tea would be Grand. Do you ship the Fudge? I like nuts (Pecans, finely chopped) in mine and maybe a bit of Toasted Mallow Cream swirled inside for decor! You are amazing and could probably do anything.
I have NEVER EVER seen anyone work So hard to make something that a person is going to have to Work So HARD to Lose the calories once it enters your mouth ;)
Beautiful to watch her work with those skills. Wonder how long it took her to perfect 'em! While here I was, tempering chocolate and thinking it was a pain. 😶
Nice video, in the future you may not want to select the "RUclips has detected your video may be shakey" thing as it crops your videos and makes it really "wavy"
Oh my god this looks incredible! Where can I buy the metal spatulas in NZ please?? I’d love to try and make some fudge, but I think it’s one of those things where you need the right instruments haha. Love the vid!! :)
I got the chance to make fudge commercially in my college days. Our recipe used cream from a local dairy and the glucose and the sugar. Our brown sugar fudge is called Panoche if I remember correctly.
If that was me flipping the mixture on the table, most of it would have landed on the floor 😂 it’s amazing just how much work go’s into making home made fudge.....think I’ll stick to just eating it.
Thank's for the upload. This process is fascinating. Why does the hot product not just run underneath the metal bars? Sorry if this is a stupid question.
I think the reason is that the hot fudge cools very quickly when it touches the cooling table and guiding bars, making it too viscous to run at the edges.
Lol, it was unexpected to see "Russian" label in the end. But you are quite right, we (Russians) are pretty fond of sweet condensed milk, from the USSR times. Now there are enough other sweets around. And actually the fudge (i.e. a toffee with milk) was quite popular in USSR and still exist now in shops, but less common. It is called "ирис" (eerees, eris) and has more brownish color: ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%98%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%81_(%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%8B) Thanks for the nice calming videos :) Will buy some local fudge tomorrow! :D
Of all the videos of cooking I have seen, yours is the only one I;ve observed washing their hands before cooking. Its kind of an assumption that people who cook always wash first, but you never know. It is so important to wash before and during cooking. Loved your video and will try your steps for fudge. I have my own recipes and favorites I make a lot but yours is interesting.
Food Processing at its ultimate best. I have to make chocolate and peanut butter at Xmas or my family wont let me in the door. I do make it from scratch, and I cook it, but this process beats my labor hands down. I sell mine, but I am sure yours costs more...as it should.
Thank you so very much for sharing these videos! Very informative and I would imagine the end product is VERY tasty! Will have to order from you sometime! :D Awesome talent! :D
Hi, are all flavours paddled like this one, or only "Russian Caramel"? My recipe heats to 114ºC (because it scalds at Soft Ball), stirred continuously, then dry ingredients added & folded in until smooth. Wait for mixture to cool to chocolate melting temperature, added chocolate & other dry ingredients and left to cool until it's sufficiently cool that it doesn't burn my hands, [secret step] then added to biscuit tray, smoothed down and left to cool completely, then sliced into 3cm squares. The result is more like fondant than gritty fudge, but so deliciously more-ish.
it was pretty cool to see how this was made, the only issue is the camera work made me feel a little disoriented with all of the zooming in and out and moving around, maybe try a stationary shot with a wide view so we can see more without all of the motion
What was the clear blot thing you put in the fudge? I love watching the process of fudge making! Why do you had to keep going around the table? Great video!
🤔 Curious about the process where you add 2 items after you pour it on the granite block, maybe it's critical to the "process" and had to be done that way, but could those last items have been added & stirred in while the mixture was still in the pot. Seems like it would have been easier. But I totally understand if the mixture would have been too hot at that point or if it's an important step in the process.
The flavor and citric need to be added on the table because otherwise the citric will burn and the flavor will evaporate. Yes, it WOULD be easier if you could add it to the pot....
This was a great video, I'd have enjoyed it more if I could've heard what you said more, and yes I had turned the volume up, just got more traffic noise and empty air hissing. When you were working the stages down, it would be nice to know why you did that, (loafing was the only one I got) and I'm a little confused; If Russian Fudge is so called in NZ because it uses "Condensed Milk" why did you use "Evaporated"?
We use evaporated milk because it's the same thing without sugar. The fudge already contains sugar...As for the sound, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it. There are plenty of how to videos, I just recently watched one showing how to make this style of fudge at home, I could have done a voice over but most people just enjoy the sound of fudge. Maybe do a little search. Thanks for your comment.
+sweetalices Thank you for your reply, the fudge certainly DOES contain sugar that's for sure it looked like a stone of it, but there's a flavour difference between the two milks it's not just a matter of sweetness. Did you try it with Condensed when you were adapting the recipe from the old book?
In my opinion it tasted the same. Russian fudge is usually made to a home recipe, it contains different ingredients than my fudges, ALL my recipes are adjusted to suit my style of fudge. I could make traditional Russian fudge but in MY opinion this is better, I don't believe crystallised hometyle fudge would appeal to my customers.
thank you! I haven't seen anyone show the whole process of making fudge and I've been searching. my grandmother used to make it so much she had 7 flavors she was known for, when she passed on i got her recipes but never actually perfected hers, my own come out wonderful but nothing beats history, watching this reminds me as a kid I'd watch the work she put into it.. you gotta love your job

Simply mouthwatering! YAM YAM YAM. And to show the people how much work is in the fudge is great so they can appreciate the delicious treat,
Absolute PERFECTION!! Thank You So Much For Showing This Tutorial...LOVED IT!~ And YOU LOOK as SWEET as Your CONFECTIONS!!
This is fascinating to watch. I am trying to learn more traditional ways of making things. Fudge is at the top of the list. I'd love to see more videos.
I thought it was a great video. The work that goes into it is astounding and what a beautiful face when she smiles, It reaches her eyes, lovely.
Incroyable !! Cette dame maîtrise parfaitement le produit !! On sent les gestes répétés X fois !! Rares sont les femmes qui doivent faire ce travail j'imagine ... Bravo Madame !!
J'adore le caramel et là ... je salive devant mon écran !! Miam Miam...
Paris (France)
I watched this 3 times. Mesmerizing. So perfectly done. Thank you very much
yaay! another one! thanks!
this video is a very nice one, especially in the beginning, I get to follow what she was doing very clearly. details were captured quite neatly.
please keep uploading some new ones! similar to this one. I truly love it!!!
That's so kind- it makes up for all the others complaining about the quality. Cheers!
She is truly a master of her craft. Great video!
I will never complain about the price of fudge ever again!
My mom made her fudge and taffy in this manner hated the work as a kid but loved the end product I wish I had been a better student to her, God rest her beautiful heart Wish I had the recipes still, lost in a house firer and had learnt all the best of the best treats none of that junk they pass out in stores wow the memories pulling taffy with my sisters and making fudge and nugget treats and soooo many more

Yummm...m drooling..seriously want to take a bite of tat yummy fudge...awesome
I must be an addict, I find the look of that sugar transforming as she whips it so beautiful.
The chemistry behind it is very cool too.
I find it interesting that all fudges shops in the world look the same. Not that it's a bad thing! Cool!
A LOT of hard, physical work for a creation well done! I would love to try it!
I can feel my blood sugar elevating as I watch this wonderful process. I'll bet the smell inside that shop is joyous.
I love your outfit! And the clever, efficient design of the table (the spaces for the bars to hang out of the way when you don't want them) and the way you mix the candy on the table - fascinating technique in action.
We call it the poor man's fudge. My grandfather made this in WW2.. it was an treat to get hold of the evaporated milk. Loved the prep video. You must have muscles of steel..
Oh, that looks fantastic. I've only ever come across one shop that sells proper handmade fudge. It's fun to see how it's made.
Your work was beautiful i commend you on your artistry keep up the amazing work your doing thank you for sharing
this is really incredible, it looks so beautiful, the color is so pleasant,this is talent, and i just like the way you are so confident, this deserves a doctorate, with love from Walvis Bay, Namibia
O’my gosh, this was so cool to watch! Looks yummy. I’m venturing out on my baking skills and this just gave me more of a push lol thank you !
amazingly awesome you're a true artisan bravo!
Wow it's a slice of bread fudge as large as a slice of bread first time seeing fudge made this way was nice to see how things r being done in other parts of the world
Love to watch this video. For some reason it's relaxing for me.
Wow, that’s a super workout! Looks good, thank you for sharing
Extremely satisfying video to watch!
I couldn't really enjoy this video as much because of the camera work. I would have enjoyed it zoomed out a bit and maybe somewhere stationary just to see more of you working the fudge as well as the fudge itself! I enjoy your videos and seeing the entire process. Sorry if this offends, not my intension.
I think you said it with much better tact than some others here. 👍
Blame youtube image stabilization for that, it close crops the video. Most people don't know that.
Riyame no way is this stabilised. It's just poor camera work unfortunately.
Then don’t watch it. I am so sick of you people evaluating the videos like you are critics. Then don’t watch it stupid.
Michele Copeland so true

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing! ❤
This was EXTREMELY satisfying to watch, I really appreciate this video :)
I enjoyed this video emensly. I wish there was a store with your products near me in the states. My mouth was entering while you did video
Really enjoyed that thanks, I'd have liked to know more about what you were adding, why you mix it so much on the table etc :)

We do mail order to Australia. Postage isn't cheap but.... Search Sweet Alice's Fudge Kitchen on facebook.
Then come back to nz yah dumb ass hehe
Quite a fascinating process!!, great video and respect to the skill!!
wow i loved watching this. i would of taken a swim in there oof it loogs so good. and i was watching all the arm movements and hands i would of given up on my arms lol. looks so good
Her cooling method is awesome!
This is sooo satisfying to watch

I used to make fudge at the strawberry farm, in guernsey...wish I could go back to that time...
I have NEVER EVER seen anyone work So hard to make something that a person is going to have to Work So HARD to Lose the calories once it enters your mouth ;)
I thought the videography was fine! I am going to check out your other vid too!
Beautiful to watch her work with those skills. Wonder how long it took her to perfect 'em! While here I was, tempering chocolate and thinking it was a pain. 😶
I don't get the video complaints. It all looks great on my iPad.
Thank you!
Nice video, in the future you may not want to select the "RUclips has detected your video may be shakey" thing as it crops your videos and makes it really "wavy"
Now de- selected, thanks
Unfortunately once it is done it stays that way. At least you know for future uploads.
sweetalices
Riyame very good advice 👍🏼
Your work was beautiful i commend you on your artistry
Oh my god this looks incredible! Where can I buy the metal spatulas in NZ please?? I’d love to try and make some fudge, but I think it’s one of those things where you need the right instruments haha. Love the vid!! :)
DominiquesUniques any diy store they are wallpaper scrapers. Just give them a good wash first .
I swear that photography blurs the mind and stirs the eyes
💞💞🙌🏼 💞 Professional how long have you been doing this?
I got the chance to make fudge commercially in my college days. Our recipe used cream from a local dairy and the glucose and the sugar. Our brown sugar fudge is called Panoche if I remember correctly.
Amazing video very interesting.
I want some of that. It looks so delicious
This is an art!!! Love it!!!
What are the liquids that you added to the mixture when on the table. The sound was a little garbled. I guess one was vanilla extract? Nice video!
Where is this shop? Fudge & real fruit ice cream looks amazing 👌
Hokitika, Westland NZ
Thank you sweetalices 😊
If that was me flipping the mixture on the table, most of it would have landed on the floor 😂 it’s amazing just how much work go’s into making home made fudge.....think I’ll stick to just eating it.
THANK GOODNESS THIS WOMAN WASHES HER HANDS 1ST!!! Madam, you've got my attention. I'll bet fudge, caramel are DELICIOUS!
I feel a cavity forming just from watching this!!
Se ve espectacular y muy sabroso, saludos desde México, me encantaría probar :)
Very nice video. What do you clean your copper kettle with and is hat a granite counter top?
Yes the table is granite. We get a shine on the copper with lemons.
Thank You
Watching this is driving me crazy! I want some lol
Thank's for the upload. This process is fascinating. Why does the hot product not just run underneath the metal bars? Sorry if this is a stupid question.
Not stupid! The mixture is too thick (high viscosity).
Thank's for the reply. I assumed the thickness had something to do with it, but I wasn't sure what viscosity it would be at that point.
TechMantra food,network.
I think the reason is that the hot fudge cools very quickly when it touches the cooling table and guiding bars, making it too viscous to run at the edges.
and surface tension.

loved watching it..that's a lot of hard work but good thigns take a lot of effort....
what is the purpose of working the fudge as much as you did and the different ways? is it to add air like if you were pulling taffy or hard candy?
Thank you so very much for sharing these videos! Very informative and I would imagine the end product is VERY tasty! Will have to order from you sometime! :D Awesome talent! :D

What is the table top made of? And, what are the metal bar barriers called? Oh, and I absolutely LOVE your video!
My table is granite. The bars are called bars(-;
it was pretty cool to see how this was made, the only issue is the camera work made me feel a little disoriented with all of the zooming in and out and moving around, maybe try a stationary shot with a wide view so we can see more without all of the motion
Awesome video
How many trays did this make, how many people would one slice feed, and how much do you charge for one slice ? And, how many slices per tray?
Never seen a more unhealthier recipe in my life 😂😂😂
What was the clear blot thing you put in the fudge? I love watching the process of fudge making! Why do you had to keep going around the table? Great video!
glucose syrup
I have to keep moving because otherwise it will go off the end!!! lol
My mouth is watering...

Lovely work. Looks delicious. I think I just gained weight watching this.
very cool, I wanna get a pot like that, n the heater thingamajig

The whole village will be delighted
That must be very painful and hard. Good job!
Oh that looks ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Labor intense though .❤️❤️❤️
