I have seen so many Lemon Meringue recipes about at the moment, from Lemon Meringue Pie to Lemon Meringue Fudge, so I thought I’d have ago at both.

Let me just say that none of them disappointed at all and will now be firm favourites in our house.

This recipe for Lemon Meringue Fudge is slightly different to lots of other fudge recipes, but it is still super easy to make and is a really quick one to make as well. The longest part of making it is when it take 3-4 hours to set in the fridge.

This recipe full of flavour, while being soft and creamy, with a slight crunch from the meringue.
