Verified retail businesses are welcome to buy our fudge at
wholesale prices but first need to be approved. Retailers
are invited to complete the "Wholesale Application Page".
Please find the link to this form at the top of this page.
When we have verified your business we will notify you and
you may begin ordering at

You may also fax or phone your order to us at 802-897-7300

Online ordering, however, is preferred.
We make our fudge every day and wholesale orders are usually
shipped within two business days of the order.
Six-pound bars of fudge
The cost per six-pound bar is $35.94 per bar or $5.99 per pound.
Each bar is roughly 12 x 8 x 2 inches.
Half-pound tubs of fudge
The cost per half-pound tub is $3.50.
The minimum order is 24 tubs of fudge in any flavor combination.
Storage
Our fudge is a perishable item made with real cream and butter. It
won’t necessarily “go bad” but will tend to dry out over time and be
fairly hard. Bars of fudge will last up to three or fou r
weeks and need to be tightly covered with a plastic storage bag at the
end of the day. The tubs have an expiration date stamped on the bottom
to help you control inventory and will last up to seven weeks from the
day you receive them.
For long term storage fudge can always be easily and safely frozen for
months in a Ziploc freezer bag with no change to its original flavor,
color or texture. Fudge will not freeze hard as ice but will become
very firm and lock in the moisture which makes it soft and creamy when
thawed. A few bars in the freezer will ensure that you won’t run out.
Tubs will freeze as well but the labels can wrinkle from the
condensation that can occur during thawing.
Displaying
Bars of fudge can be displayed in two ways.
1. Fudge bars in retail stores can be placed on a Formica counter-top
with a sneeze-guard between the customer and the fudge. The customer
can see up to 12 bars of colorful, mouth watering fudge. The retailer
can then custom-cut, weigh and box the fudge for the customer. We will
gladly furnish you with a list of suppliers for all you’ll need to
professionally present and sell Phenomenal Fudge.
2. Bars can also be pre-cut into equal-sized cubes. Each
cube can be tied up in a baggie or wrapped in plastic wrap.
Each bar is pre-scored into 24 roughly identical
quarter-pound pieces.
Tubs of fudge in retail stores need to be displayed near or on the
front counter to maximize inventory turn-over.
Sampling for retail stores
Samples make the first sales so always sample, sample,
sample. Your customers will love the special treatment and
your sales of fudge will build as a result, not only right
when they taste the fudge for the first time but also when
they come back for more.
