This fudge was a complete disaster. It never set properly and it tasted terrible.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my fudge turned out grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This fudge was a bit too dense for my liking. I think I would have preferred a lighter, fluffier texture.

I had some trouble getting the fudge to set properly. I think I might have cooked it for too long.
