Glorious Fudge, Easter Eggs and Easter Markets.

This Easter weekend, we invite you to visit us at three Cape Town markets for some of the best fudge to be found in the Western Cape.

On Saturday morning, we will be at our regular Porter Estate Produce Market in Tokai [open from 9.00am until 1.00pm] and The Market at the Palms in Woodstock [open from 9.00am until 2.00pm]. On Sunday 31 March  we will be at the Natural Goods Market at Canal Walk [open from 9.00am until 2.00pm].

We have also recently brought out a new type of fudge , which we call chocolate marshmallow fudge. Quite a mouthful of a name, but then so is this fudge... quite a[delightful] mouthful.

Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge... yummy!

A combination of chocolate and fudge with a slightly "springy" texture. Maybe a little like eating a chocolate fudge marshmallow. A bit difficult to describe really... so best just to come along and taste for yourself at one of the markets this weekend.

Oh yes and Easter Eggs and Easter Bunnies. We have some specially wrapped up for you. They are also made from the chocolate marshmallow fudge

So we hope you will visit us at a market near you this weekend.

A special Eat Out DStv market opens at the Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock at 5.00pm today. At 6.00pm the national winners in various categories of the Eat Out DStv Food Network Produce Awards for 2013 will be announced. We feel very privileged just to be able to take part in this prestigious event and we hope to see you there. We have been nominated under the Small Producer: Confectionery section. As usual, our fudge will be available to taste and to buy.So come along and join us this evening.

Taste Demerara Sugar Fudge at Natural Goods Market

Today looks like a brilliant sunny day here in Cape Town. Its ideal weather to visit the Natural Goods Market at Canal Walk today. The market is open from 9.00 and there is always a selection of stalls to get something for breakfast and later on for lunch. Browse around and you will of course find our Glorious Fudge stand.

We have another great selection of fudges including our new Demerara Sugar Fudge. This less refined brown sugar adds a certain earthiness to the fudge flavour. Demerara Sugar is named after a previous name of Guyana in South America from where this sugar was grown. Fortunately, we did not have to go that far to get the sugar and you wan't have to go any further than the Natural Goods Market to get a piece or a packet of out Demerara Fudge creation.

Try Demerara Sugar Fudge with cheese and grapes!

                                                                                                                  
So before you leave the market, come along, taste from our range and stock up with some sweet delights from our stand. Please note that we do not supply the cheese and grapes at the market, but usually there are stallholders supplying these items.

To get the special sugar you could of course you could go all the way to Guyana, but then you will only get the sugar and miss out on our delicious Demerara Fudge!

Coconut Fudge at Waldorf Night Market

We invite you to come to our stall this evening and taste our Coconut Fudge, a fairly new addition to our range. All it takes to make is some of the best fudge around, to which we add coconut milk and some  desiccated coconut plus a whole heap of magic and hey-presto there's Coconut Fudge!

Apart from Coconut Fudge, we also have many other flavours on offer including Traditional Butter Fudge, Demerara Sugar Fudge, Wellington Squares [a bit like Millionaire's Shortbread, but with fudge inside], cranberry fudge and ginger fudge. Oh yes we also have two brand new flavours on offer. So come along to stall number 42 in the hall at Waldorf Constantia tonight and we can show you our range. For your convenience, the fudge is available in pieces or packets. The only problem is which flavour to choose. One great solution is to select your flavours and we can bag the pieces for you.

Coconut Fudge... the Hibiscus is extra!

Valentine's Day Fudge - better Late than Never

Is your valentine a fudge fanatic? Did you remember to get some flavoursome fudge? If not, it may not be too late to save the day ... and your valentine. Contact us. After all, we are known in some circles as the fudge fundis. Yes and maybe also known for cobbling together alternate alliterations.

Unfortunately, unseasonal summer rain put a damper on the Porter Estate Market, so our regular customers and new visitors alike, were unable to get access to our Valentine's Day delectables at a wet outdoor market. So this is your final chance to get some for you and your valentine. Tomorrow is Valentine's and we still have a handful of specially presented fudge packets and tins in stock.

On the other hand things were really humming and indeed thumping at The Market at the Palms as they celebrated their 1st Birthday last Saturday. Mr Cat & the Jackal were there loud and clear and visually the Cape Town Rollergirls were very much in evidence as well. The market was extremely busy and the fudge found many happy purchasers. It was a great day and a memorable 1st year celebration.

This coming Saturday the weather promises to be kind to us. So we look forward to seeing you at one of our two regular markets. Indoors at The Palms or making the most of mid-February sunshine at The Porter Estate Produce Market. It may also not be too late to get that a belated packet of Valentine's Day fudge!

We Have Remembered Valentine's Day... Have You?

Thursday 14 February is Valentine's Day and we have remembered to bring some Valentine's Day packets to our markets at Porter Estate Market and at The Palms Market tomorrow [Saturday 9 February]. So why not pay a visit to stalls at Porter Estate in Tokai or at The Palms Lifestyle Centre in Woodstock and get a packet or tin of fudge for someone special in your life and hey, while you are about it, why not indulge yourself a bit too?

Happy Valentine's Day!

At Natural Goods Market, Century City, Cape Town

The entertainment line-up at the Waldorf Night Market this evening [as sent to us]  is as follows:

17h00: Musical Waldorf students step up to the mike. Don't miss a wealth of emerging talent!

18h00: Ottoman Slap brings you original sounds evoking a rich span of moods ranging from the sultry depths of  the Middle East to the meandering slopes of the Balkan hills.

19h00: Gary Thomas is one of the biggest solo acoustic artists in South Africa today. He has recently returned from a highly successful 2 month European tour playing packed out shows in 11 cities. His new album 'Midnight Atlas' was launched at a sold out run at The National Arts Festival in Grahamstown in June 2012.

20h00: Manouche believe that if it ain't got the swing, then it truly don't mean a thing. Their music reflects this as they blend French Gypsy, Jazz, Swing, Folk, Tango and Waltz into a sound that is very difficult not to get up and dance to.
