Mackinac Island Fudge – The Best Fudge on Earth
While fudge was not invented on Mackinac Island, it most certainly – and most deliciously – was perfected here.
For over a century a distinguished line of candy makers on Mackinac Island have worked their magic on marble slabs and created a treat so sweet and creamy that it embodies the essence of bliss.
An enthusiastic fan recently posted on our facebook page: “the fudge from Mackinac Island is the Best Fudge on Earth“. We agree.
Mackinac island has an abundance of fudge shops that share the tradition of making delectable fudge and other sweet treats. Murdick’s Fudge… Joann’s Fudge.. Ryba’s Fudge Shops… May’s Candy Shop… Murray Hotel Fudge Shop..

Our third summer to Mackinac Island - my happy place! We rode bikes around the island with no worries which is so wonderful (and stress-free), saw dogs (and dogs) and horses, and people of all ages enjoying the slower pace and lack of city noise. We met people from Bosnia, Hungary, Los Angeles, and Michigan 🤣. We all agreed there’s no place like MI. #mackinacisland #mackinacislandfudge #myhappyplace
