This was wonderful! They had to pry it away from me to take it to the bake sale. It's a must for any coconut fan. This Christmas I will make it up for trays and dip the squares diagonally in chocolate coating. The fudge is pure white so it will be very elegant. Thank you,( she says with a full mouth)

Really a GREAT flavored fudge! We LOVED it here at our house, will be Christmas baskets for sure. I did toast the coconut which gave it a beautiful color and flavor and saved a handful to sprinkle on the top other than that followed the recipe. THANK YOU for posting this recipe.

I made these for my mom for Mother's Day. She loved it, but my dad liked it even more and ended up eating most of it! I appreciate how easy to recipe was to follow, as I haven't done much candy-making before. I cut the fudge into triangles, and decorated them with melted chocolate. They looked fancy and expensive, and tasted great.

I got rave reviews for this recipe this Christmas. It was nice to offer on our goodies an alternative to the traditional fudge. :) Stirring is critical during the boiling process...I learned the hard way. :( Second try everything turned out wonderful, I doubled the recipe even. :) I think next time around I will try adding chopped macadamian nuts to the fudge. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe...this is definately a keeper. :)

This fudge is so good it forced me to be naughty and eat some before breakfast. I found it hard to get out of the dish I chilled it in so next time I will put some baking paper down before I pour the mixture in. I used coconut flovoured evaporated milk because I had it in my pantry and the whole reason I made this recipe was to get rid of it, because of that i added less coconut flavouring but sprinkled extra coconut flakes on top. I also used recipe #75813 marshmallow creme by Kittencal because i had no idea where to find the jared stuff and it turned out delish!
