This is the first time I have made it. It is a lovely colour, tastes good but seems to be only half set. There is no sugary graininess (is that even a word!) Can I do something to fix it!What have I done wrong!Im thinking I either havnt boiled enough or beaten enough

I think I will have to leave it now til tomorrow. It is too thick to beat as it is now cold. I will have to reheat it I think and then beat again.

See what it is like tomorrow morning. Might actually set overnight and be ok! Good luck :-)

back into the pot, it wont set.back to the soft boil stage. Today i have been making batches of fudge also. What a difference condensed milk makes.

I would heat it gently, don't beat, and then stir in till melted 100gm Whittaker's white chocolate.That will guarantee setting.Leave until completely cold before cutting.
