Chocolate Pistachio Fudge
Making your own sweet treats is great for many reasons. It’s a fun activity, they’re delicious and they make really thoughtful gifts.
Fudge is one of our favourites because the creamy and decadent flavour is perfect for indulging straight away, plus it keeps for 2-3 weeks! We added dark chocolate and pistachio nuts to ours for some added richness and crunch, and we topped them with gold deco powder for sparkle.

- 150g soft light brown sugar
