Cornish based confectionery producers, Copperpot Originals, have announced their newest fudge flavour; Limoncello Butter Fudge. Made in St Ives the new flavour was inspired by a wedding on the Amalfi Coast in Summer 2017.

Originally made as a bespoke batch as wedding favours for family friends the resounding delight at the Limoncello flavour inspired production in the Copperpot factory in St Ives. The Italian Limoncello creates a zesty zing to the sweet butter fudge. The crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth texture combined with the citrusy hit of lemon makes this new flavour indulgently moreish. 

Commercial Director Mark Brian says: “I'm thrilled to launch the new Limoncello Butter Fudge flavour. We took the fudge to the ISM Germany, the world's largest trade fair for sweets and it was incredibly well received! Each bite takes me back to the Amalfi Coast – the Limoncello adds a sharpness to the sweet taste of fudge.” 

The new flavour will be available online with delivery to UK and Europe. The product is naturally gluten-free and suitable for vegetarians.

About 

The story of Copperpot begins in 1978 in a Cornish seaside town where the Brian family had their first fudge shop.

David's chef-training in London coupled with granny's tasting expertise developed the first batch of fudge on their stove in a traditional copper pot. This family recipe is still the cornerstone of the business today. Granny has now retired, however David who is the Managing Director now works alongside his son, Mark as Commercial Director making three generations of confectionery connoisseurs in Cornwall.

Copper has a long history as the best metal for making confectionery equipment owing to excellent conductive properties. Copperpot Originals range of fudge is now made in a bespoke kitchen where the product is batch-cooked and cooled on racks, then hand-broken.
