I know it’s a big call, but I’m confident this is the best Thermomix Caramel Fudge recipe you will ever make – I promise! It has the perfect fudge texture, tastes amazing and you only need a few ingredients to put it together – what more could you ask for?!
This Caramel Fudge makes a great after dinner treat or is also great to share with friends at your next party, and with Christmas just around the corner (eek!) it also makes a great gift for friends, family and teachers.
I used a regular 18 x 28cm slice tin to make this fudge, however you could also use a loaf tin, or even a small square tin if you’d like thicker pieces of fudge.

- 2 tablespoons of golden syrup
- 220 g of brown sugar
- 200 g of white chocolate - broken into pieces
Instructions
- Line a 28cm x 18cm slice tin with baking paper - make sure you leave some hanging over the edges to help you remove the fudge from the tin once it’s set.
- Break the white chocolate into pieces and place into your Thermomix bowl. Chop for 5 seconds at speed 7. Transfer to a bowl and set aside until needed.
- Place the butter, golden syrup, condensed milk and brown sugar into your Thermomix bowl and cook for 8 minutes at 100 degrees on speed 3 with the measuring cup off.

I had absolute rave reviews about this fudge from all the people who tried some, and it was the first time I’d tried a recipe without glucose syrup. However I did find it was difficult to smooth over once poured out. So I didn’t get the smooth clean finish which presented as nicely once wrapped for Xmas gifts. There’s another recipe on the TM site called salted caramel fudge which did achieve the smooth finish on top. Possibly it’s the slight difference in measurements or cooking times or maybe it’s the addition of glucose? Still it was delicious, I’d make it again just the same, but not for gifting ?
Author
Thanks Lisa, you are probably right, the glucose syrup probably does make it easier to smooth. I’m really glad everyone enjoyed the taste x
The best fudge recipe ever!!! I had marriage proposals after people ate the fudge. This is now a family favourite recipe. Thank you so much.
Oh that is SO awesome!!!!!
Hi how long will it store for and what is the best way to store it?
Author
Hi Sharyn, I usually store ours in an airtight container in the fridge. You could store it in a container in your pantry, however it may go a little soft depending on how warm it is. To be honest the longest we’ve stored it is around a week.
Hi, new thermo user here. Step 4 do I put the measuring cup back on ?
Author
Hi Helen, yes you do 🙂
AMAH-ZING took it to work and people said it was the best they’d ever tasted!
So easy to make, thanks!
Didn’t have enough white chocolate so did half white and half milk choc and it was delicious, don’t know how I will wait the 6 hours before I can cut it!
Author
Ooh that sounds great!
After making this a number of times, we found we didn’t have enough white chocolate, so did half white and half milk chocolate. We thought this fudge couldn’t get any better, but now we have it this way by choice. Sooooooo delicious.
Oh that’s awesome to know!
Hi,
I was wondering if this could be frozen successfully? I usually make all my fudge in chocolate molds and then store in freezer until I am giving them out in hampers (I make roughly 20 hampers at a time). I usually do this over a couple of weeks so trying to write out my preparation order list.
Thank you
Author
Hm, I haven’t tried to freeze it before. I’d suggest popping a piece into the freezer overnight as a test. Sorry I can’t be of more help xx
Thanks. Will give it a try
Hi Kirsty, has it frozen well? I would love to make this as a gift but we have a 7hr car drive and I think it will fare better if it can leave our place frozen!
I made this the other day it was delicious how do I go about doubling the recipe, what adjustment should I make for time etc? Thanks
Author
Hi Melissa, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I think it’s probably best to make two batches of this recipe instead of doubling it I’m afraid. Sorry I can’t be of more help x
I successfully doubled the recipe. I made the following adjustments:
Step 2- chop for 10 seconds
Step 3-cook for 12 minutes
Step 4- put measuring cup back on and cook for 32 minutes.
Step 5- mix for 20 seconds
Thank you for the recipe Lauren. Perfect treat.
Hi Leanne! Thank you for your Excellent adjustments instructions! Following these now as we speak 🙂

Definitely make it in two batches. I’ve tried double batches twice and it doesn’t set. It works as a single batch perfectly every time.
Oh no! I left the white choc in the bowl and added all the other ingredients instead of adding at the end.
Any chance it will still be ok?
Author
It will still be ok! I’ve done that before too xx
Thank you. I just left chocolate in and was horrified when I kept reading. ?
I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect! So easy and so delicious. Will definitely be made again and again.
Woo hoo! That’s great to hear – thank you!
I made this for christmas and everyone that ate it said it was the best fudge they have ever eaten. Easy recipe and sooo delicious.
Author
That’s excellent, we’re so glad you all enjoyed it!
Why did my condensed milk separate
Author
Hi Eve, Hmm, I’m not too sure why that may have happened. Was the condensed milk still in date?
Absolutely fantastic…5* My husband isn’t a fudge fan – he says it’s too sickly etc…but he LOVED this and ate more than I did!!! If anyone has been to the Fudge Kitchen in UK…it’s on par with their fudge, creamy and smooth and has a fantastic flavour.
BTW, I keep it in the freezer and think its actually nicer when just out of freezer, leave for 1o mins before trying to cut!
Yay!! That’s wonderful that you guys liked it so much!! Great tip about the freezer too!!
Hi, I’m hoping to make this as Wedding favours. Is this recipe for a TM5? I believe Varoma temp is slightly different between the TM31 & the TM5?
Author
Hello, This recipe is for both a TM5 and TM31 🙂 I’m pretty sure it’s called steaming temp on a TM31 .
Thank you Lauren. I’ll see how I go?
Someone else made this and brought to work and I loved it and had to give it a go. I am not usually a big fridge person but I’m definitely this fudge person! It’s pretty rich so I cut it up pretty small. My husband and daughter love it too.
Fantastic!!!! We’re so happy to hear that!
Could this be used in little silicone moulds?
This is soooo good! But safety 101, or “safety measures for dummies” says whatever else you do, do NOT be tempted to lick the bowl & blades after mixing!! Just joking 🙂
Hahahahaha!!! I like your tips!!! xx
The only problem with this fudge is that it is too good. I can’t stop eating it.
Hahahaha that IS a big problem!! xx
Haha but DO get some milk put the varoma on for a couple of minutes and make an amazing caramel hot chocolate (while (sort of) cleaning the thermie!) 😉 xx
Ooh that’s a fabulous idea!!!
When the 10 year old makes it and doesn’t read the recipe correctly, you get caramel toffee!! Leave the white chocolate in the TM bowl instead of setting it aside to add later. Chop chocolate, add remaining ingredients, cook as per step 3 and 4, skip step 5 (adding chocolate back in because obviously it is already in the bowl), finish with step 6 and Ta da – caramel toffee.
Author
Ooh I think they might be onto something!
Would there be a way to add hoemmade kahlua to the recipe and still have it set? Wanting to make some boozy treats for Christmas ?
Hi Rhia, hmmmm goo question!!! We haven’t tried this so wouldnt like to say! But if it works, please let us know!!
Hiya any chance you have tried making this dairy free?
Author
Hi Michelle, no I’m sorry I haven’t tried this dairy free before x
Hi Michelle I make a dairy and gluten free fudge For my daughter when I make this for us as I feel terrible eating it in front of her 😉 I make it by making quirky cooking dulce de leche and mixing it with 2 packets of gluten free scotch finger biscuits That I’ve crumbed from Woolworths And add it to the dulcet de leche once it is cooked and mix through till it looks like a fudge consistency I hope this helps It’s delish!
I added the following at step 4:
2 heaped teaspoons of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of allspice
1 teaspoon of ginger
1 teaspoon of nutmeg
A good squirt of vanilla bean paste
I also halved the golden syrup.
This made the most incredible gingerbread fudge.
Thanks for a great recipe xx
Fantastic idea!!!!!
Soooo excited to try this recipe for teacher gifts! Do you have a preference for salted or unsalted butter? I have only ever made salted caramel before so used salted but not sure if that would change the taste of this?
Thanks so much!!!
Author
I have used both before 🙂
Can you add macadamia nuts to this fudge
Of course!
Smashing recipe, works every time.
The last time I made it using dark 70 % chocolate, stirred in 150gm raisins soaked in 3 tablespoons rum overnight at the end and topped it with 200 gms dark chocolate melted, after refrigerating the fudge …….
YUM!!!!
Omg this is the best fudge recipe ever…it is so creamy and just yummy as! My family, friends and customers are addicted hehe! Have you got a chocolate fudge recipe as well please? You are amazing 🙂
Thank you!! And we sure do! https://thermobliss.com/chocolate-fudge-in-the-thermomix/
I followed the stove top recipe exactly and my fudge didn’t set. Should I put it into the oven to bake?
Author
Hi Denise. If it didn’t set I would suggest melting it again and popping back into the fridge overnight x
where is the stove top version?
Hi Kellee, we’re sorry but this is a Thermomix recipe website. xx
Absolutely fantastic recipe, tastes great, very smooth and creamy and set perfectly flat. Will definitely make again and again! Heading over to check out your other fudge recipes now. Thank you!
I accidentally bought maple syrup instead of golden will this still work ok? Thank you
Author
Hi Rebecca, I’ve never made this recipe with maple syrup, it’s not quite as thick which may impact the end result. Sorry I can’t help more x
Just cut it and yum! Thanks for the recipe. I will be making this again and again!
Fantastic!!!
Hi. I’ve made this recipe many many times however more recently I’m having issues.
Its as if the butter separates once the choc is added in at the end? A buttery / oily layer appears on top when I put it in the tray. It also sets much harder and when cuts splits like chalk…
Same brand of products used
Using a tm5.
All and any suggestions so appreciated
Hi Ruth, you might have already seen my reply on Instagram but if not here it is! I haven’t ever had this happen before so my suggestions are purely suggestions! I would try mixing it on a slightly higher speed at the end and for a little longer (until it’s combined). You could also try and try a different brand of products and see if that helps!

Yes, this is the best recipe, I make this caramel fudge at least twice a week on request from my work colleagues. I also sprinkle sea salt in the bottom of my dish, before I pour the fudge in, this is yummy. I will be making 3 more lots this week before Christmas 🎄.
Absolute winner. I add some salt to it and make it a salted caramel fudge. My kids and there friends absolutely love it and request it all the time.
Thank you
Most amazing fudge ever, my fudge had a smooth result.
Author
Oh thank you!!
Hi, question, does the white choc. Need to be cooking or normal choc.?
Thanks
It can be either xx
omg shocking that people are needing to store this. this fudge is absolute amazing goodness. everytime i make it people ask for how to make it. the fudge never lasts longer then 2 days im my house 🙂
Hahahaha love it!!
Has anyone reduced the sugar in this recipe before. I did like the flavour but found it overly sweet. Would love to try again .
This was an amazing recipe the first time I have done a fudge recipe in the thermomix- best fudge I’ve ever tasted outside of Cornwall/Devon so thank you
