So Jeffrey’s got a thing for fudge. And by thing, I mean a huge obsession. He and his best pal at school even make it themselves and then trade during school. Now, once upon a time, I thought I had the best fudge recipe in the land- but I was mistaken. Recently, I was given a lesson in real fudge making, and shown the error of my ways- and now I state with confidence that I truly possess the secret of joy. Fudge joy.
So Jeffrey’s eyes light up as he munches on a small cube of the chocolatey, creamy goodness- we ixnay any nuts in ours and just go for the truffle texture. With chocolate on his nose, Jeffrey asks me if he can have a Fudge Stand, in the stylings of a Lemonade Stand, for Christmas. He wants to name his company Superfudge, in homage to one of his favorite books, and sit out by the street pimping his fudge. I had him make his own batch with the new recipe, and he’s even more gung-ho. Would you stop at a Fudge Stand, manned by a stout redheaded, freckle-faced boy at the end of his driveway in the snow? I’m pretty sure I would…

It appears he is going to be a rich entrepreneur at a young age.
Oh, yes, I most certainly would. Good fudge is worth every penny and if the stand was names Superfudge how could you go wrong? I believe I may need this new found fudge recipe.
I am a long time lurker and really enjoy your blog! By any chance could we get the recipe?! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Ah, see I knew this was going to happen! The recipe is not mine- it was shared with me by a loved friend, and I’ll have to get permission to share it. I’ll ask. 😉
Oh, I will skip the recipe…you can just send me the fudge!!
Yes, I would stop by Jeffrey’s stand, most definitely!
Love this…
If I ever left my house, I would definitely stop by a fudge stand, especially one named Superfudge (good book). I’ve been craving fudge today. Maybe I’ll make some this afternoon.
Darn it all, I had on plan today to make fudge before I saw your post. Now you say that we can’t have the Superfudge recipe yet? *sigh* I guess I’ll have to get started with the Cookie Dough fudge and the caramels instead.
So help me, if it were my recipe to give out, I totally would. I always give out my best recipes. This one is a friend’s family recipe and without his permission, I can’t give it out. I’ll see though!
Totally understand about the recipe. If the friend consents then that would be lovely. If not, I understand.
As long as there was a hand-lettered “SuperFudge” sign behind the stand, that’s a really stupid question. If for no other reason than to continue to convince Michelle to stay with me, of course I would stop.
And Ray knowing me this well would be one of the reasons we will be celebrating our 25th anniversary on Sunday… 🙂
I would SO stop.
It is a genuinely terrific idea. Even better if he can get a stand that looks like one Lucy from Peanuts sat behind. Baby boomers won’t be able to help themselves.
Forget STOP by Jeffrey’s fudge stand – I would FLY to get some of his fudge.
Alas, that costs more than fudge-stand prices…
I guess that means we hope for your friend’s permission to share the recipe. If not, you can always share (or link to where you’ve already shared…) your former recipe.
Jeffrey can ship you some fudge for less than the cost of flying…
I like the way you think, Marta! 🙂
