Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 1/2 cups white chocolate chips (1 1/2 cups for each color layer)
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream (1/4 cup per layer)
Sweeteners:
- 3 tablespoons honey (1 tablespoon per layer)
Coloring and Flavoring:
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract (1 teaspoon per layer)
- Yellow food coloring
- Orange food coloring
Instructions
- Prepare the baking vessel by lining a rectangular mold with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage and slight overhang for effortless extraction.
- Craft the luminous yellow stratum by gently melting white chocolate chips with heavy cream over a controlled heat source, stirring continuously until achieving a silky consistency. Infuse with vanilla and honey, then incorporate vibrant yellow pigment to create a sunshine-inspired layer. Carefully distribute the mixture across the prepared surface, creating an even, smooth landscape.
- Generate the vivid orange tier by replicating the previous technique, blending yellow and red chromatic elements to produce a warm, autumnal hue. Delicately pour this tangerine-toned mixture atop the thoroughly chilled yellow foundation, maintaining a pristine, uniform surface.
- Construct the pristine white stratum using the identical melting method, omitting any color enhancement. Gently cascade this ivory confection over the solidified orange layer, ensuring complete coverage and a flawless finish.
- Allow the entire confectionery creation to rest and set completely in a cool environment for several hours, permitting each layer to solidify and meld harmoniously.
- Once fully set, elevate the entire block using the parchment paper edges, then slice into delicate geometric shapes resembling traditional candy corn. Serve and savor this whimsical, seasonally inspired treat.
Notes
- Butter your baking dish generously to prevent sticking and ensure smooth removal of the fudge.
- Use high-quality white chocolate chips for the creamiest and smoothest texture possible.
- Maintain low, consistent heat while melting chocolate to prevent burning or seizing of the mixture.
- Create vibrant candy corn colors by experimenting with precise food coloring ratios, adjusting drops for perfect orange and yellow shades.
