Can I change the mix-ins?

Absolutely! Don't like orange? Omit the zest! Don't like cranberries? Chopped nuts are a great choice too! I love the combination of almonds and white chocolate too.

What size of pan is used?

I recommend using an 8x8 inch square pan or baking dish. Since you're not baking the fudge, it doesn't matter if you use metal, glass, or ceramic. Just make sure to line your pan with parchment paper for easy removal. If you'd like, you could use a round pan as well - your fudge will just not all be square shaped. You can also use a 9x9 inch pan but the fudge will be thinner.

Can I use white chocolate chips to make fudge?

Yes! Although a white chocolate bar will melt easier, you can use white chocolate morsels instead. Just be sure to stir frequently while mixing and be careful that you don't burn the chocolate.

What makes white chocolate taste like white chocolate?

White chocolate is made from cocoa butter which is the oil that comes from cocoa beans. White chocolate does not have any cocoa powder in it which is what gives regular chocolate its flavor and brown color.
