Bubblegum Fudge – Sweet, Creamy & Fun No-Bake Treat 💗🍬


  • Author: WAFA LI

Ingredients

Scale
(Makes one 8×8″ pan | 36 bite-sized pieces)

Sugar-free fudge base:

  • 1 cup sugar-free white chocolate chips (you love white chocolate combos—memory #6!)
  • ½ cup full-fat cream cheese, softened (you love cream cheese—memory #11!)
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream or full-fat coconut milk
  • ½ cup powdered monk fruit sweetener (you love blood sugar friendly!)
  • 12 tsp bubblegum extract or sugar-free bubblegum syrup (the star flavor!)
  • Pinch of salt (use reduced-sodium—you love low-sodium!)
  • Optional: 1–2 drops pink natural food coloring

Mix-ins & swirls (choose your favorites!):

  • ¼ cup sugar-free pink and white candy melts, chopped (for “gum ball” bits)
  • Optional: 2 tbsp almond flour for extra texture (you love almond flour—memory #25!)
  • Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract to balance bubblegum intensity

Optional toppings (you love unique combos!):

  • Crushed sugar-free “gum” bits or pink sprinkles
  • Flaky sea salt for sweet-salty contrast (memory #11!)
  • Edible glitter or pearl dust for party sparkle

Instructions

1. Prep pan:
Line an 8×8″ pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease parchment.
2. Melt base:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, cream cheese, and heavy cream.
Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth and glossy (~60–90 seconds total).
Pro tip: Don’t overheat—white chocolate seizes easily!
3. Sweeten & flavor:
Whisk in powdered monk fruit sweetener, bubblegum extract, salt, and optional vanilla until smooth.
Add optional pink coloring for classic bubblegum hue.
4. Add mix-ins:
Fold in chopped sugar-free candy melts and optional almond flour.
For swirled effect: Reserve ¼ cup plain fudge mixture; tint remaining pink. Alternate spoonfuls in pan; swirl gently with knife.
5. Set & chill:
Pour mixture into prepared pan; smooth top.
Sprinkle with optional toppings while wet.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours (or freeze 45 minutes) until firm.
6. Cut & serve:
Use parchment overhang to lift fudge from pan.
Cut into 36 small squares with a warm knife for clean edges.
Store in airtight container between parchment layers.
💡 Pro Tips for Perfection:
Use room-temp cream cheese—prevents lumps and ensures silky texture.
Microwave in short bursts—prevents scorching white chocolate.
