In reply to Frankie.

I will say with something like this, it’s a bit of a personal taste thing – also, it depends on the dark chocolate as some have stronger flavours. Some people review the recipe to say it’s too strong in Baileys (I don’t think thats possible, more baileys the better!) but sorry it wasn’t strong enough for you. If you added more it may likely make it not set. xx

In reply to Mrs C. The fudge photographed is purely dark chocolate - chocolate can vary in colour depending on brand and also photos are taken in a bright kitchen with a nice camera, so may purely look different based on lighting in a kitchen. x

Can you use cointreau with this recipe it’s such a hit with my family and friends wondering if you can use different liquors.

Hello I just made this using 70% dark choc as the recipe states but it looks really dark in colour and not at all like yours? I made it a couple of years ago and I’m sure then it was a mixture of plain and milk chocolate?

I made this today, following the recipe exactly. I even bought a new tin so I’d have the same size as you used. What I’ve ended up with is a lovely dark chocolate fudge without the slightest hint of the taste of Bailey’s 😂 My husband said to put it more but I was scared it wouldn’t set. An odd sort of problem to have lol. But an easy recipe to follow and the fudge is delicious even without the kick from the Bailey’s

How long does this keep for? And does it need to be kept in the fridge?

In reply to Joanne Mullett. Do you need to cover the fudge in the fridge?

This fudge looks amazing!

Could I use other liquors in this recipe?

Can you use a different liqueur in this recipe?, was thinking of possible tia Maria. Would obviously need to keep it the same volume of liqueur

In reply to Claire Hay. Hi, just wondering if the baileys could be replaced with foodie flavours irish cream for this fudge? If so, does it change the amount of other ingredients required in the recipe? Thanks in advance!

In reply to Nick. Hiya! Unfortunately if you lower the amount of chocolate, it won't set properly (as it's a condensed milk fudge). Hope this helps! x

I made this yesterday and it tastes amazing. So thank you for the recipe.
Nobody in the house likes dark chocolate so I did the milk chocolate version.
I used 800g as suggested in the recipe. Left it the fridge overnight.
It was set but seemed quite soft still.
Also, it seemed very chocolaty, so I was wondering if I reduced the chocolate amount, what issues there may be and would it still work?

In reply to Claire Hay. Hiya! The grittiness makes it sound as though the chocolate burnt in the pan, and then the greasiness does sound as though it split unfortunately! x
