    Consistency??

    Hi, I mastered pretty much making my fudge. And I swear I can detect a difference in taste at practically the gram level. 20g of butter just isn’t the same as 18g of butter. I don’t know if I should micromanage the quantities to this precision but one thing I have noticed is my fudge tastes...
