Why You'll Love This Recipe
- Just 6 ingredients and 20 minutes of hands-off cooking time.
- No thermometer is required - the Thermomix controls the temperature perfectly.
Recipe Ingredients
Note: The full quantities are shown in the recipe card below.
- White chocolate - use white chocolate melts from the baking aisle, as they're designed to melt smoothly. I've also tested this recipe with Lindt white chocolate, which worked well.
- Sweetened condensed milk - both Nestlé and homebrand sweetened condensed milk are suitable for this recipe. Do not use evaporated milk; otherwise, the fudge will not set properly. If you'd like to make your own, try my easy Thermomix sweetened condensed milk over on my sister blog - it works perfectly in this fudge.
- Unsalted butter - use unsalted butter.
- Golden syrup
- Glucose syrup
- Brown sugar - I like to use brown sugar for a richer caramel flavour but white sugar also works well.
Step-by-Step Directions
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, butter, golden syrup and glucose syrup to the Thermomix bowl.
- Cook for 7 min/100°C/speed 3 with the simmering basket on top. The mixture will be a pale caramel colour. Then heat again for 12 min/Varoma/speed 3. The mixture will change to a darker caramel colour.
- Add the white chocolate and blend for 20 sec/speed 4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula then blend again for 10 sec/speed 4 until the chocolate is melted.
- Quickly pour the hot mixture into the prepared tin and leave to cool on the bench for 20 minutes. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours before slicing.
Recipe Tips
- The fudge thickens quickly once it's made, so work fast to pour it into the tin before it sets.
- You may notice a few dark streaks at the bottom of the Thermomix bowl - this is just the sugar caramelising slightly as it cooks and won't affect the flavour.
- Ensure the baking tin is fully lined with overhangs at each end to help lift the fudge out easily.
Common Questions
It's best to avoid doubling this recipe. The quantity becomes too much for the Thermomix to handle safely, particularly when cooking at high temperatures like Varoma. There's a risk the mixture could overflow or fail to cook evenly. To keep things smooth and stress-free, make it in two separate batches.
No - evaporated milk won't work in this recipe. Sweetened condensed milk is essential for both sweetness and the thick, creamy texture of the fudge.

📖 Recipe
Thermomix Caramel Fudge
Ingredients
- 395 g sweetened condensed milk see notes
- 100 g brown sugar
- 100 g unsalted butter
- 20 g golden syrup
- 40 g glucose syrup
- 200 g white chocolate melts see notes
Instructions
- Line a 20cm square tin with baking paper, leaving a slight overhang on two sides so you can easily lift the fudge once it sets.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, unsalted butter, golden syrup, and glucose syrup to the mixing bowl. Cook for 7 min/100°C/speed 3 with the measuring cup removed and the simmering basket or splash guard in place.
- Increase the temperature and cook for a further 12 min/Varoma/speed 3 with the measuring cup off and the simmering basket or splash guard in place.
- Add the white chocolate and blend for 20 sec/speed 4. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with a spatula, then blend again for 10 sec/speed 4 until smooth and melted.
- Working quickly, pour the mixture into the prepared tin before it sets. Leave to cool on the benchtop for 20 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, before slicing into squares.
- Wash the Thermomix bowl as soon as possible so any mixture stuck to the bottom doesn't harden.
