**chocolatechip** · 08-Jun-10, 11:58

Thanks Chaz for helping but what weight of a tin needs to in? Thank you again xx

My mum has come up with a couple of new ideas to go in to the fudge, it's Cherry Brandy or Cornish Clotted Cream. I know you can get the Clotted Cream in Tesco

*sigh*
I just put on 2lb looking at this thread!
And the diabetic nurse would have kittens if I actually made the fudge as I cant help but taste at every stage... and the tins I have have round corners...and if you want nice squares the corner pieces have to go...
