How to Store Fudge

No matter how you are storing your fudge, the best way to wrap and store it is to cut it into individual pieces and then wrap each piece in wax paper, parchment paper, or plastic wrap. I like using wax paper because it sticks less but plastic wrap or even foil works just fine. After wrapping each piece, keep the fudge in an airtight container to further keep from drying out.
