Our Candy Corn Fudge is a delicious and easy Halloween treat. This no-bake homemade fudge only needs 5 ingredients and 15 minutes to make!
Candy Corn Fudge Recipe
One of my all-time favorite things about Halloween is when they bring out the candy corn. Not only is candy corn iconic for Halloween it is the best candy. Now, either you love it or hate it…there is truly no in between and I love it!
We are not talking about the Candy Corn pumpkins or the chocolate version of candy corn. We are talking straight-up orange, yellow, and white candy corn. The good stuff!
So when I was thinking about my Halloween dessert recipe planning, I thought how about try to make a fun spin on candy corn! That’s when the idea of Candy Corn Fudge was born!

recently came across this recipe.
I was thinking candy corn (like peeps) can be year long: white with 2 pastel colors for spring or Easter; red white and blue for patriotic holidays for a couple of examples.
I find this tastes more like white chocolate than a fudge. maybe more vanilla or flaverings would help. Anyone else have ideas? It is easy and looks amazing.
probably did something wrong but tried and it came out like really soft and very sticky.. started at 3pm (EST) and removed from fridge at 2 am (EST). if I could add a picture I would.
not sure if it’s the white chocolate chips I bought but definitely didn’t turn out the way the picture shows. as I sit here writing this is nothing but a melted mess of sticky goo.
chips used…. white baking chips
100% real hunny
white (clear) vanilla
food Lion heavy whipping cream
Like Aprill, above, even after overnight my batch has not set up. I used white almond bark figuring it would be more likely to be solid – WRONG!
looks very good .I’m going to make it for my sister -in-law Cady corn is her favorite.
took it out after chilling over night and was almost like glue. Epic fail!
Could you make this ahead of time and freeze? I was thinking of making it for an event but needed to prep in advance.
You can typically freeze homemade fudge for 2-3 months. I haven’t tried it with this one, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.
I am afraid to make it becaise I loce candy corn sooo much I will eat so much but I am going to try
Can this fudge be used for a sukkah event?
I think it could!! <3
You just won my husband heart, he lovvvvvve fudge, but until your easy step by step post I was to afraid to try and make any. Thanks for sharing.
It is REALLY easy! You can do it!
Hi Jennifer,
