Homemade Hot Fudge
Two dipperfuls of Philadelphia VANILLA BEAN ice cream drowned in Franklin Fountain HOT FUDGE and topped with our fresh WHIPPED CREAM and a BORDEAUX CHERRY… an American icon.
We make our fudge fresh using Wilbur’s dark chocolate, churned SMOOTH with fresh local milk, cream and butter, then cooked on-site in our antique copper candy kettle. Honest ingredients are the best policy for flavor.
