Love and fudge go hand in hand this Valentine’s Day at Fudge Kitchen Bath! This year, the Fudge Kitchen store isn’t just celebrating the season of love with delicious handmade treats—it’s also celebrating a real-life romance that started with a swirl of fudge and is now leading to wedding bells.

A Love Story as Sweet as Fudge
Tia Hancy and Ian McCluskey have been delighting fudge lovers in Bath for over a decade, running the store together with passion and skill. But their journey together began much earlier—in 2012, when they first met while working at Fudge Kitchen in York. Over the years, their love has grown just as rich and deep as the handcrafted fudge they make, and now, they’re ready to embark on a new adventure together.
As they prepare to say goodbye to Bath and hello to their next chapter in York, where they will take on new roles within Fudge Kitchen, the couple is making sure their farewell is just as sweet as their story. To spread the love, they’ve been handing out free fudge, Valentine’s balloons, and offering exclusive discounts in the city centre this week.
More Than Just a Fudge Shop
Fudge Kitchen has always been about more than just fudge—it’s about connections, experiences, and moments of joy. Richard Parson, MD of Fudge Kitchen, says, “Tia and Ian’s story reminds us that our shops are more than just somewhere to buy fudge—they’re places where connections are formed, whether that’s with our customers, our community, or each other. We couldn’t be happier for Ian and Tia and wish them a lifetime of happiness together!”
As they prepare for their June wedding and a new life in York, we can’t help but feel inspired by their journey. Who knows? Maybe a visit to Fudge Kitchen this Valentine’s Day could spark your own love story!
