This Island Country Store In Michigan Sells The Most Amazing Homemade Fudge You’ll Ever Try

Joann's Fudge on Mackinac Island offers some of the best, hand-made fudge in Michigan, with over 10 flavors available.

Michigan has a long history of making fudge, and that’s very evident for anyone who has ever spent any time strolling around Mackinac Island, the Fudge Capital of the World. If you’re in search of the best fudge in Michigan, you’ll find it right here at Joann’s Fudge.

Mackinac Island has been a fudge lover’s paradise since the 1880s.

You’ll see several candy shops peppering the island, and several specializing in fudge.

Joann’s has been a local favorite since it opened in 1969.

There are two locations on the island as well as a third in Mackinaw City. The Mackinaw City location is open seasonally, from May to October.

Now in its third generation, this family-owned and operated fudge shop is known for some of the smoothest, creamiest fudge in Michigan.

In a town that's known for fudge, that's saying something.

It’s mesmerizing to watch the process unfold right before your eyes.

The fudge is slowly cooked in traditional copper kettles until it reaches a specific temperature. It’s then poured onto marble slabs to cool down, and it’s paddled by hand into loaves to cut up and serve.

The result is some of the best fudge you've ever had.

Joann's serves over 10 different flavors of fudge, with seasonal flavors always making an appearance.

From traditional chocolate to signature creations like vanilla salted caramel and raspberry truffle, each flavor is just as sinfully delicious as the next.

You can even order online and get your favorite flavor shipped right to your door!
