Swiss Maid Fudge, Wisconsin DellsSome of our old fashioned candy treats

Jul 15

Although working at Google may not seem at all related to working here at Swiss Maid Fudge, we both now have one great thing in common—free fudge!

A recent forum on the site Reddit.com revealed that Google employees receive free fudge brownies at work. Most of us have heard of the other amazing perks of working at Google, such as massages and free lunches, but here at Swiss Maid Fudge we can appreciate the appeal of a delicious fudge treat.

The article went on to reveal that while most Google employees love the benefits of working at the company, some have a few complaints—one even involved the quality of the fudge on the free brownies. If employees had tried our fudge, we are betting there wouldn’t be any complaints!

If you want to try our fudge, you can browse our fudge online shop where you can find many varieties of gourmet delicious treats to buy all shipped to your door.

There are few treats that bring back the taste of childhood like rich, creamy, gourmet fudge. As rich as the treat itself is the confection’s history, which dates back to the 1880s. Contrary to popular belief, fudge is actually an American invention that resulted from an accident with a bungled (or “fudged”) batch of caramels. The sugar was allowed to recrystallize, and the name was born from the interjection, “Oh fudge!”

Emelyn Battersby Hartridge, a Vassar College student in Poughkeepsie, NY, created the one of the first documentations of fudge in a letter to her family. In her letter, she referred to a schoolmate’s cousin who made fudge in Baltimore in 1886 and sold it for 40 cents a pound. She snatched the recipe up, and in 1888, made 30 pounds of it for the Vassar Senior Auction. The trend quickly caught on at other women’s colleges such as Wellesley and Smith, both of which developed their own versions of this “original” fudge recipe.

After all these years, Swiss Maid Fudge has changed the process very little, maintaining the precise measurements, cooking time and stirring that are crucial for perfect fudge. And while the recipe may not look all that overwhelming—heat a mixture of sugar, butter and milk or cream to the soft-ball stage (224°-238°F), then beat it to a smooth, creamy consistency while it cools – fudge is notoriously easy to undercook or overcook.

Lucky for you, we’ve perfected the process and are shipping the same quality, homemade fudge that fascinated Emelyn Hartridge years ago,  straight to the comforts of your home!

Gourmet fudge is more than just a delicious, creamy and sinfully delicious dessert. It’s an art form. Making candy by hand, especially gourmet fudge has fallen out of popularity. In our modern society, we tend to not consider the source of what we’re eating, particularly when it’s in the “dessert” category. Using a mix or opening a box is still considered “making dessert”, when in fact it is not even close. To make a dessert requires much more knowledge and practice. Specifically, making handmade gourmet fudge requires a great deal of creativity and skill, something that the creators of Swiss Maid Fudge, found online at www.swissmaidfudge.com have in spades.

The flavors of their handmade gourmet fudge are also impressive. You can choose between several basic gourmet fudge flavors, such as Milk Chocolate Plain gourmet fudge, and Dark Chocolate Plain gourmet fudge. Or, you can choose something slightly more daring, such as their Chocolate Covered Cherry gourmet fudge, and Cookies and Cream Immersion (Oreo) gourmet fudge.

No matter which flavor you choose, you know you’re getting quality ingredients and a product made by people who have a passion for their product! Gourmet fudge makes the perfect hostess gift, thank you gift or a special treat for a special occasion. Swiss Maid Fudge can also gift-wrap your purchase, allowing your gourmet fudge to arrive ready to give. Swiss Maid Fudge makes all of their artisan gourmet fudge by hand, and then is hand packaged in their candy shop, so you are certain to receive top quality fudge every time.

Another excellent idea for handmade gourmet fudge, is as favors for your baby shower, (what expectant mother wouldn’t love some gourmet fudge?) sweet sixteen party, birthday party, or wedding. Favors are often something a guest won’t use and can be a big waste of an event’s budget if not chosen carefully. Handmade gourmet fudge is always a winner! Visit Swiss Maid Fudge at their candy shop located on Superior Street in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin to see their handmade candies, salt water taffy and gourmet fudge being made right before your eyes. Give them a call or visit today and experience gourmet fudge making the old fashioned way.

If you don’t live close enough to pay a visit in person, you can visit their online shop at www.swissmaidfudge.com to order their gourmet fudge, handmade caramels, salt water taffy and more. Shipping costs are very reasonable, and your gourmet fudge will arrive in excellent condition, and quickly too! Give them a call today and experience gourmet fudge making the old fashioned way.

If you’ve never had handmade, artisan gourmet fudge then some would say you’ve never had “real” fudge. It is delicious, made with quality ingredients-none of the fillers and artificial preservatives you’ll find in store bought, mass produced low quality fudge. Every bite of handmade, gourmet fudge is smooth, light and melts in your mouth. Swiss Maid Fudge makes excellent gourmet fudge, and is available to answer any questions you have.

Gourmet fudge is a decadent treat. Everyone loves its velvety-smooth, chocolaty flavor, and everyone knows the best gourmet fudge doesn’t come from a box; it comes from the kitchens of small candy shops, where gourmet fudge recipes have been handed down and refined over the course of generations. Swiss Maid Fudge, a Wisconsin-based candy maker that has been family owned and operated for two generations, makes some of the best fudges and candies in the business. And, even better, they ship them directly to your doorstep.

Gourmet fudge, from Swiss Maid Fudge, comes a wide variety of flavors, to suit almost any taste. Classic plain dark chocolate fudge, is, of course, available, but so are more exotic varieties. Swiss Maid’s Cookies and Cream Immersion fudge, for example, is packed with delicious chunks of real Oreo cookies. Swiss Maid’s maple fudge, meanwhile, tastes like real maple syrup. Peanut butter fudge is also available, as are several different flavors of vanilla.

Aside from its gourmet fudge, Swiss Maid makes a number of different kinds of candies and treats. Swiss Maid’s caramel apples are a delightful twist on a classic fairground favorite. In addition to plain caramel, Swiss Maid offers them in a wide variety of different flavors, including white chocolate and rocky road. Swiss Maid also makes brittles and crunches, salt-water taffies, caramel corn, and hand-dipped chocolates. Speaking of the latter, do not miss Swiss Maid’s amazing hand-dipped fortune cookies—they make a truly astounding finish for any luxurious, Asian-inflected meal.

The reason Swiss Maid Fudge is able to produce such extraordinary gourmet fudge (and other candies) is that they use time-tested methods. Every batch of gourmet fudge from Swiss Maid Fudge is made in copper kettles, on iron stoves. Using this antique equipment allows Swiss Maid to make a product unrivalled in quality by any mass-produced imitator. No major industrial candy maker can match Swiss Maid in attention to detail.

Swiss Maid also uses nothing but the very best ingredients in all their candies. Chocolates are made with real cocoa, and fudges and caramels are made with the freshest creams and butters available. (Swiss Maid Fudge is located in Wisconsin, remember, so the freshest creams and butters available are among the freshest in the entire world).

The freshness of their ingredients, combined with their traditional techniques, make Swiss Maid’s gourmet fudges among the best available in the world today. Swiss Maid will ship anywhere in the country, and their goods are always packed fresh, so they arrive in peak condition.

Gourmet fudge is a food that has been enjoyed for centuries. Swiss Maid Fudge carries on a long tradition of crafting this delicious, homemade treat by making use of the recipes and techniques that inspired its popularity in the first place. In a modern world that is dominated by artificial ingredients and chemical flavors, we work hard to give you a healthy and natural way to indulge in gourmet fudge and candies.

Swiss Maid Fudge was started in an effort to share its founder’s great family tradition of gourmet fudge and candy making with the Wisconsin Dells community. Since its opening in 1962 Swiss Maid has gone on to enjoy an always-increasing level of popularity due to our commitment to all-natural ingredients, careful adherence to recipes and the ability to provide each of our customers with high-quality gourmet fudge that is as delicious as homemade.

As we continued to attract new customers from beyond our Wisconsin Dells home we also began to craft a wider variety of Old World candies to accompany our selection of gourmet fudge. Over the years Swiss Maid has grown an extensive catalog that is sure to meet the sweet tooth of any customer. We now sell traditional items like salt water taffy, hand-dipped chocolates, creamy caramels, an array of brittles, crunches and much more. Each of our new products is always made with a time-tested recipe and the finest ingredients — simply because we want every treat we sell to be as popular (and delicious) as our gourmet fudge!

We still create our gourmet fudge and candies in the same way that initially garnered such a positive reputation in our community. Swiss Maid brings a dedication to excellence across items straight from our kitchens to those purchased at our online store. Even as we’ve grown to enjoy success outside of our state, Swiss Maid Fudge still continues to operate in much the same way we did almost half a century ago. Our gourmet fudge and candies can be purchased online for complete convenience but you can always be assured that they’ve been made in small batches and with the utmost care. We believe that offering your products through an online store doesn’t require any drop in quality.

You can see the Swiss Maid difference for yourself by stopping in at our downtown Wisconsin Dells headquarters or visiting our official home on the internet. We want you to see the unique process we use to create our gourmet fudge and candies first-hand. Our professional candy makers can always be found hard at work on a batch of treats, made from quality ingredients and combined over open gas fired, cast iron stoves. This traditional, European method is best experienced through our open view kitchens in Wisconsin but can also be glimpsed through photos and writing at our website.
