Ready to turn your favorite treats into truly special gifts? In today’s video I’m showing you how I packaged up Mom’s “FAMOUS” fudge into a cute, handmade gift using paper crafting supplies! 💛
Now listen… my mom always said her fudge was famous — and it really WAS in our family — but the secret is that her recipe came straight from the Jet-Puffed Marshmallows package. 😄 So I’m using that classic, no-fail fudge recipe as the treat, and then walking you through how I dressed it up Maymay-style for gifting!
