The Products: Traditional and Handmade
The delicious, crumbly-style fudge is made without using any additives or preservatives.
The Cotswold Fudge Co. source only the freshest ingredients, including rich clotted cream and top their fudge with Fairtrade chocolate, amongst other topping choices.
To create the fudge, the carefully-selected ingredients are boiled at incredibly high temperatures, stirring all the while, before pouring into large bowls to cool.
Once the fudge has begun to crystallise, it is poured into trays, where toppings and flavours are added. Then, once it is cool enough, it is cut it into cubes, by hand. This means no two pieces are ever identical.
All of the confectionery is suitable for vegetarians and is gluten free. Plus, the Cotswold Fudge Co. even have a new dairy free fudge, suitable for vegans.
