How to make the best Candy Corn Fudge:

• Line a 9×5 loaf pan with foil or parchment paper, then set aside. 
• In a saucepan over medium low heat, combine white chocolate chips, heavy whipping cream, honey and vanilla extract. 
• Stir continuously until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. 
• Pour ⅓ of the white chocolate fudge mixture into your prepared pan and smooth into an even layer.
• Divide the remaining fudge mixture between two bowls. Add your orange food coloring to one bowl, and stir until the color is blended. 
• Pour the orange colored fudge on top of the white fudge.
• Add your yellow food coloring into the second bowl of white chocolate fudge , and stir until the color is blended. 
• Pour the yellow colored fudge on top of the orange fudge and transfer to the freezer for at least 2 hours. 
• Once firm, remove the fudge from the pan and cut into small, bite-sized squares. 

Candy corn is such a classic part of Halloween, and these colorful fudge squares are a fun way to bring that nostalgic candy-inspired look to your dessert table.

My top tips:

• Melt the chocolate slowly: For the smoothest fudge, melt the white chocolate slowly over low heat and stir often. White chocolate can be a little finicky, so taking your time helps prevent it from becoming grainy or scorched.
• Use gel food coloring: Gel food coloring creates bright, vibrant Halloween colors without adding too much liquid to your fudge mixture.
• Work quickly when layering: Divide and color the fudge while it’s still warm and easy to spread. Gently smooth each layer into the pan to keep the white, orange, and yellow colors looking neat and distinct.
• Pour the layers carefully: To keep your candy corn fudge layers neat and distinct, pour each color gently over the previous layer. Use a spatula to carefully spread the mixture, being mindful not to press too hard or disturb the layer underneath. If the fudge starts to thicken, that’s okay! Just work gently to keep those pretty Halloween stripes intact.
• Let it chill completely: Be sure to let the fudge chill completely before slicing. If it still feels soft in the middle, give it a little more time in the refrigerator. You want firm, neat squares that hold their shape when you serve them.
• Line your pan with parchment paper: Leave a little overhang on the sides so you can easily lift the finished fudge out of the loaf pan. It’s a simple trick that makes slicing and serving so much easier!
• Make it ahead of time: This Candy Corn Fudge is perfect for preparing before Halloween parties or fall gatherings. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
• Storing: Store your Candy Corn Fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 week to help it stay firm and maintain its texture. When you’re ready to serve it, you can let the pieces sit out briefly for a softer bite.
