The Cutest Christmas Gift – Reindeer Caramel Fudge

Salted Caramel Fudge is one of my most popular recipes on ThermoKitchen. This simple fudge is so quick to make, never fails and is absolutely addictive. Recipients are always pleased to be gifted a tin of fudge. So the idea for making salted caramel fudge as a homemade Christmas gift was a “no-brainer”.  What makes this version of my recipe even better is the cute reindeer caramel fudge packaging.

Don’t forget, your reindeer don’t have to be caramel in colour and flavour. If you prefer If you prefer you could also use this Vanilla Fudge recipe. Making a batch of each would just be crazy cute.

The fudge is made using a round spring-form pan lined with baking paper. Once the fudge was set the sweet was cut into eight wedges. The reindeer caramel fudge was then placed into rectangular clear cellophane bags. I folded back the cellophane sides to get a nice triangular shape and then secured the sides with sticky tape to the back of the reindeer.

The bravest and most patient parents might even consider asking the children to help decorate the reindeer.  Seriously though, the decorating is simple. Just choose some adhesive gems for the nose and some cute googly eyes. I struggled to find adhesive googly eyes as this year this was a “last minute” Christmas gift making exercise. I found regular googly eyes which needed to be stuck on with a hot glue gun.  The Reindeer Caramel fudge is then just finished with a Christmas ribbon around the end.
