Store Homemade Divinity Fudge

Divinity fudge is a candy that originated in the United States. It has been around since the early 1900's and is most popular during the holiday season. Divinity fudge is naturally white in color, but some recipes add a pastel tint to brighten up the candy. The center of the fudge has a light texture while the outer layer is crispy. It is important to properly store divinity fudge, so the candy does not dry out. If stored properly, homemade divinity fudge can last for up to two weeks.


Instructions


1. Cover the bottom of an airtight container with waxed paper. Lay teaspoon-sized pieces of the divinity fudge onto the waxed paper. Situate the candies at least ¼ of an inch apart.


2. Lay another piece of waxed paper on top of the divinity fudge. Lay a second layer of the candies in the same manner as above onto this piece of waxed paper. Continue the process of stacking the candies on layers of waxed paper until the container is full.


3. Secure the lid on the container. Store divinity fudge unrefrigerated for up to two weeks.
