About Us

From our humble beginnings back in 1989 we have come a long way as one of the finest manufacturers of traditional hand made fudge and sugar confectionery in the U.K.

From initially producing and selling just five varieties of fudge on a small market stall in the centre of Rochdale, this family run business has gone from strength to strength, gaining recognition as the North West’s formidable fudge confectionery supplier to specialised outlets, department stores, hamper companies, theme parks and seaside resorts up and down the country. Our fabulous Fudge Factory merchandise has been found on shelves as far away as Spain and Italy. We cater to the needs of our retail consumer and for wholesale customers alike. With an enormous range of hand-crafted, fine quality fudge, truffle, nougat, toffee and chocolate products, we have grown remarkably since those original five flavours.

We now employ a specialist core staff of chocolatiers and confectionery makers here at The Fudge Factory, Lancashire. Together, we continue to follow the traditional methods and recipes involved in age old sugar boiling procedures using our four huge copper pans, in order to capture and maintain that wonderful taste of yesteryear. Our experts won’t stop there though. Continuously developing their finely-tuned skills, new and exciting varieties and flavours are brought out every year. From subtle changes and delicate flavours, to a full-on taste explosion, our expert team continue to surprise and astonish with each and every new creation.

Over the years we have accumulated many awards for our wonderful delicacies and new and innovative confectionery creations. From our Bailey’s flavour truffle to our clotted cream flavour fudge, we can’t resist the combining and pairing of such sublime and complementary ingredients.

For our sheer dedication and the attention to detail that goes in to creating every batch of our outstanding confectionery, we gained the Great Taste Award, back in 2004. We continue to maintain those high levels of excellence in order to fulfil our promise to you.

With such an enormous selection of confectionery to choose from, you’ll simply be spoilt for choice here at The Fudge Factory. From traditional fudge flavours available in Rum flavour and raisin, vanilla, dairy and Lancashire crumble, to mint chocolate flavour, orange and chocolate flavour moving on to the more unusual lavender flavour fudge, our jet black liquorice flavour fudge and not to mention the one flavoured with curry and chilli!

Our comprehensive range of truffles is equally as impressive, from Bailey’s flavour to champagne, Grande Marnier flavour to the sweet taste of almond essence. The list is endless. Speciality hand made nougats are a rare treat and are as varied and exciting as the rest, including our successful Montpellier nougat, along with our more traditional cherries and nuts. Our toffees include butter toffee, treacle, Brazil nut toffee and Banana Split, something delicious to get your teeth in to. All as scrumptious as the next delightful piece of fine sugar confectionery.
