We're nestled in the foothills of Dartmoor in Devon, producing deliciously smooth and creamy traditional fudge.
Our secret recipe dates to 1930, developed long before the Second World War.
Over the years the quality and flavour of this traditional fudge helped the business grow steadily across the West Country.
My father went into partnership in the business during the 1970s, and even as a young boy I became involved in the pride and process of traditional fudge making.
I began working full time for my father and his business partner in the early 1980s. From the beginning I loved the recipe and the craft involved in making it, and I was proud to be cooking and selling our fudge across the West Country.
Sadly, my father and his business partner both passed away at a relatively young age, and for a period I worked in a different occupation.
However, I never forgot the recipe or the craft behind it.
Over time I realised the West Country lacked a truly traditional creamy fudge made using the original methods, so I set about developing The Devon Fudge Company Ltd and bringing the recipe back to life.
Today I am extremely proud to see how well our fudge is being received by both businesses and the public.
One of the most rewarding comments we hear is:
"At last, a decent West Country fudge."
The company continues to grow as more people discover our traditional handmade Devon clotted cream fudge.
