This fudge had a food taste, but I can not get it to set up. I even tried cooking it from soft ball stage to hard ball stage and it still didnt set. This recipe is a little too expensive to try and experiment with.

This had a great flavour, but did not get firm. I followed the recipe exactly and used a candy thermumeter to verify proper temp. Please help. I would love to be able to make this so it comes out correctly.

This was my first attempt at candy making. This is really tasty, though mine were more like taffy than fudge in texture (probably my inexperience, not necessarily the recipe!). It didn't set firmly. I'd like to get a thermumeter and try it again as we love the flavour. Quick and easy.

The name strawberry fudge is inaccurate. It had the texture of caramel and the flavour of sultanas (which I loathe). Strawberries don't boil well, I guess. And just because something is cooked to soft ball stage, put it in a pan to cool, and cut it into squares, doesn't make it fudge. Obviously we didn't like it.

I just finished making this fudge a couple of hours ago and honestly, it's about the ugliest fudge I've ever seen. I tasted it as it began to cool and it is way too sweet and doesn't taste like strawberries at all. It does look like leather! Used my thermumeter and am a habitual fudge maker, but this one was horrible. What a waste of good strawberries.
