Fudge and truffles are two different types of confectionery. Fudge is a soft, sweet, and creamy candy that is made by cooking sugar, butter, and milk or cream together and then allowing it to cool and set. Truffles, on the other hand, are small, round chocolate candies that are made by combining chocolate and heavy cream and shaping them into balls before being rolled in cocoa powder or chopped nuts. While both are sweet treats, fudge has a softer texture and comes in a variety of flavors, while truffles have a rich and decadent chocolate flavor and are often used as a luxury gift or special occasion treat.
