Valley Fudge & Candy is located in the heart of Coon Valley, pop. 785. It’s a village in Vernon County that’s a good day trip destination from places like La Crosse and Madison.
Linda Schulte started Valley Fudge & Candy after retiring from a corporate life. She brought some fudge to a craft fair, it was a big hit, and the rest was history.
After the craft fair, Schulte first began providing fudge to local businesses. In the early days she made her wonderful product in borrowed kitchen space.
There’s a secret to Valley Fudge & Candy’s success, and it’s grazing in fields not far from the company. Local dairy cows produce butter for Westby Cooperative Creamery and that creamy butter goes into every batch of fudge. According to the owners, it makes a big difference!
