Hi Bold Bakers! I’m going to get to the point here with my Vanilla Bean Fudge recipe — if you want a sweet fudge for a treat but want it to be softer than what you’d get with a darker chocolate, you’ve come to the right place. Because I use white chocolate in this recipe, you’re going to get a fudge like you’ve never had before because white chocolate doesn’t set as hard — it makes for some seriously nice eating, and that’s what we’re all about, isn’t it? Already have an account? Plus, this recipe only calls for THREE ingredients. Now, there are some things to learn here when it comes to making this vanilla bean and white chocolate fudge, like definitely don’t use “candy melts,” they’re not real chocolate and more just a chocolate-flavored, well, substance. Get all of my tips down below.
What Is Vanilla Bean Fudge?
Vanilla Bean Fudge is a softer fudge that’s made with white chocolate. It doesn’t set as hard as a darker chocolate, and because of that, you’ll get a very lovely, if not slightly different, experience when you eat this instead of other types of fudge. Oh, and if you’re looking for more fudge recipes, you’ve come to the right place — because I even have a recipe for fudge you can make in the microwave.

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Vanilla Bean Fudge
Please don’t use ‘Candy Melts’. Candy melts are not chocolate but more of a ‘chocolate flavored’ substance. It’s generally poor quality and will not make a delicious, good quality fudge. If you are looking for vanilla bean paste then this is a good one. If you don’t have vanilla bean paste you can substitute it with a tablespoon of vanilla extract and the seeds from 1 fresh vanilla pod. The type of white chocolate is important in this recipe. I like to use Callebaut as it is of great quality. When choosing chocolate buy bars over chips. Chips have additives and stabilizers added to them and are best not to be melted. Bars are much better for this type of recipe. Every had trouble melting white chocolate chips? Now you know why!
