What do you need to make Blueberry Fudge?

Tips to make the Blueberry Fudge:

  • Feel free to watch the recipe video tutorial attached. You will see how easy and simple this recipe is!
  • Use quality white chocolate, that is the main ingredient so you want it to be the best in order to get the best taste and texture
  • Also, white chocolate is very pretentious, make sure you don’t rush through melting it. Therefore, melt it in 20 seconds intervals in the microwave, followed by lots of stirring to make sure you do not overheat it. If you overheat the white chocolate, it will clump and separate and it will become unusable, unfortunately.
  • Equally important, this recipe is not intended to be made with fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries. So you specifically need freeze-dried blueberries.

Do you need to refrigerate fudge?

Fudge will keep at room temperature just fine. It does not need to be refrigerated. If you decide to store it at room temperature or in the refrigerator, make sure you place it in an airtight container so it doesn’t dry out.

How long can you keep homemade fudge?

When properly stored, the fudge can stay good in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 1-2 weeks.

Can you freeze Blueberry Fudge?

You, you can easily freeze this Blueberry Fudge recipe. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and after that in aluminum foil or place it in freezer-safe bags. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before serving.

Blueberry Fudge

  • Prep Time10 MIN
  • Cook Time
  • Servings 12 servings

Ingredients

  • 20 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup freeze dried blueberries
  • 1/2 teaspoon purple gel food coloring optional

Optional Garnish:

  • 6 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
  • 1/4 cup freeze dried blueberries

Instructions

  • Line a 9x9 inch pan with parchment paper, so it overhangs on two sides. Set aside.
  • Add 1 cup of freeze dried blueberries to a food processor. Pulse a few time to slightly chop the fruit. Set aside.
  • Combine the chocolate wafers and condensed milk in a large, microwave safe bowl.
  • Microwave in 20 seconds increments and stir after each one very, very well, until the chocolate has melted. It took me two intervals only to melt the chocolate, make sure you stir well before you microwave again, as the remaining heat will melt the chocolate.
  • Note: If you are using regular chocolate, make sure you chop it into small pieces before adding it to the bowl to microwave.
  • Stir well until smooth, add the chopped freeze-dried blueberries. Stir well to combine. For a more pronounced purple color, add the gel food coloring.
  • Pour mixture into the prepared pan. If desired sprinkle freeze-dried dried blueberries on top and pour some melted white chocolate on top. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Slice the fudge and serve.
  • Fudge can be stored at room temperature for 1 week in an airtight container for longer in the fridge.

Can You use Imitation Blueberry powder as a substitute for the dried blueberries? Will I need to add granulated sugar to the recipe?


Catalina Castravet

Catalina Castravet

Hi Janet, sorry but I am not familiar with the powder you mentioned.

Hi Catalina, Can you use fresh blueberries or blueberry jam as a substitute for freeze dried?


Catalina Castravet

Catalina Castravet

yes, you can, but the result will be a bit different. Freeze dried blueberries turned into powder, so the taste is a bit different.
