Giving a Fudge.
Our purpose has always been to make life sweeter: to make nice things and make things nicer for everyone along the way. Here’s how we’re doing it.
Making life sweeter.
-
Product
Continuing to create amazingly tasty products by embracing change, improving productivity, and spreading the word of fudge all around the world. No one does it quite like us.
-
People
Our fudge family are a highly-skilled, fun-loving bunch. We want to keep it that way by continuing to nurture individuality & progression, so we can deliver a unique, joyous, and genuine experience to all our customers.
-
Planet
Challenging ourselves to actively do more to find ways to reduce, repair, reuse, recycle and replace to minimise our environmental impact and give back wherever possible. Making nice things and making things nicer along the way.
-
Always Handmade
For nearly 40 years we’ve been perfecting the art of sugar confectionery, everything we make is hand-worked, cut, or decorated by hand. We’re a small-batch producer at heart and want to keep it that way!
-
Always Natural
You can’t have a quality product without quality ingredients; it’s all about the detail. Our product is made using only natural flavourings and colouring, and ingredients are sourced as locally as possible.
-
Only the Good Stuff
All products are gluten free, vegetarian, and contain no preservatives. We also make sure that all our recipes are 100% palm oil free. We are proud to carry over 20 products bearing the Vegan Society seal of approval!
-
Always Innovative
We have a dedicated product development team constantly hard at work, not only to discover new and exciting confectionery from traditional favourites to exotic infusions, but how we tackle the big sustainability questions too.
-
Forests First
We only use FSC / PEFC certified board for product packaging. The FSC is dedicated to promoting responsible forestry and certifies forests around the world to ensure they meet the highest environmental and social standards possible.
-
Quality & Kindness
But it’s important to us that everything we add doesn’t take away from the bigger picture! We use only plant-based inks and water-based glues, and limit foiling to ensure recyclability.
-
Planet Friendly
Continuously working hard to improve the recyclability and compostability of our packaging. This year we launched a new range of fully compostable-packaged products in our shops throughout the UK. The small amount of plastic packaging we use is made of recycled materials.
-
Giving Back
We support a number of causes and initiatives that aim to tackle both social and environmental issues close to our hearts. This year we've already provided over 800 weeks of community support for older people, and have raised funds to plant more than 1,300 trees.
Looking to the future.
There’s always room to improve, and we understand first-hand how tricky it can be to navigate the minefield of operating a sustainability-driven business, but to us, it’s worth it! We’re an innovative bunch and relish the challenge!
We’re always looking for ways to do better and are keen to get into the nitty-gritty and learn how we can be more responsible at every level of the business. Our passion for leaving a positive impact comes from our customers, our people, and a drive to genuinely make the best fudge in the world. It’s that commitment that is always at the heart of everything that we do.
