Substitutions & Variations

Swap the strawberry frosting for a vanilla frosting for a more subtle flavor.
Try using other dried fruits like raspberries or cherries for a twist!
Add a few tablespoons of heavy cream to the melted candy melts for a more decadent fudge.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Start by placing your strawberry and cream candy melts in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave for one minute and stir. Repeat this process until fully melted and smooth.

Microwave your strawberry frosting for one minute, removing the foil lid first.

Pour the melted frosting into the melted candy melts and stir until completely combined.

Line your baking dish with parchment paper, then pour half of the fudge mixture into the dish.

Add half of the dried strawberries and half of the crumbled pound cake.

Pour the remaining fudge mixture on top and smooth it out evenly. Lightly tap the dish on the counter to remove any air bubbles.

Add the remaining dried strawberries and crumbled cake to add extra texture, if desired.

Seal the baking dish with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for about 4 hours until the fudge is set. Cut into squares and enjoy the perfect summer treat!

Tips for Success

Stir the melted candy melts and frosting thoroughly to avoid any lumps.
Be sure the fudge is fully set before cutting it to ensure clean squares.
If you like a firmer fudge, refrigerate it for longer than 4 hours.
