The stem ginger and cherries make this fudge a deliciously appetizing treat, and great homemade seasonal gift!

Ginger and Cherry Fudge
This is my go-to recipe. I love the fudge it makes I heat it to 117 on a thermometer for perfect results every time.
MrsK 

Milk

150ml

Demerara sugar

450g

Butter

100g

Glacé cherries, halved

150g

Stem ginger, chopped

55g

You will also need…

20cm square tin lined with baking parchment

Step 1 of 3

Heat the milks, sugar and butter in a large, non stick saucepan over a low heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Bring to the boil and simmer over a low heat for 10–15 minutes, stirring continuously and scraping the base of the pan, until a soft ball of fudge is formed when a little of the mixture is dropped into a jug of cold water. 

Watch our quick video on how to make fudge on our ultimate fudge recipe page.

Step 2 of 3

Remove from the heat and beat the fudge by hand until thick and grainy (about 10 minutes).

Step 3 of 3

Gently stir in the remaining ingredients. Pour into the prepared tin and leave to cool before cutting into squares.
