Home For The Holidays: Sweet Endings

Guest: Swiss Maid Fudge

Swiss Maid Fudge first opened forty years ago in downtown Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. Over the years the candy store has expanded to include salt water taffy, caramel apples, caramel corn, brittles, crunches and the list goes on. All of the candy is made the old European way using copper kettles and cooked over open gas fired cast iron stoves. Small batches ensure freshness and quality. Locals can peek into the action by taking a tour of the old fashioned store. Photos from the tour are also posted online.

Among dozens of options, long standing favorite continues to be Milk Chocolate Fudge. Other popular treats are Cashew Crunch loaded with fresh roasted cashews, Assorted Caramel Apples, and buttery smooth Vanilla Caramels. Seasonal items include Spiced Pumpkin Seed Brittle, Pumpkin Fudge, Cranberry Fudge, and Peppermint Bark. Sugar-free candy options include Chocolate Nut Fudge, Peanut Butter Cups and Salt Water Taffy.
