About Me

Hello, I’m Vanessa – the founder of Appleby Fudge, proud mum of four, and wife to my wonderful husband, Layton.

What began as a simple joy in my home kitchen has blossomed into a heartfelt business, inspired by family and fueled by a love for creating something truly special. Our children are not only my greatest supporters but also my enthusiastic taste testers as I explore and refine new flavours (lucky them!).

At Appleby Fudge, every batch is crafted with care, using a recipe I’ve perfected over time and thoughtfully adapted to create a unique variety of flavours. It’s more than just fudge - it’s a piece of my heart, a celebration of tradition, and a sweet way to bring people together.

I’m so delighted to share it with you, and I hope you love it as much as I do.
