Jelly Bean Fudge
Fun and festive Jelly Bean Fudge recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 jar (7 ounce) marshmallow cream
- 1 bag (11 ounce) white chocolate morsels
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- ¾ cup unsalted butter
- pinch of salt
- 3 ½ cups jelly beans (spring mix), divided
- 1 Tablespoon green sanding sugar
Instructions
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lining it with foil. Wrap foil around an empty fruit or vegetable can. Place in center of springform pan and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the marshmallow cream and white chocolate morsels. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, add sugar, heavy cream, unsalted butter and salt. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, stirring frequently. Once boiling, continue to boil for a full 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and pour over marshmallow mixture. Using an electric mixer, blend for about one minutes, until morsels are melted and mixture is smooth.
- Fold in the 1 ½ cup jelly beans, until combined. Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle with green sanding sugar. Using the remaining jelly beans, arrange into flowers on top of fudge. Once decorated, place fudge, uncovered, into the refrigerator for 4 hours, or overnight.
- When ready to serve, remove fudge from springform pan by releasing the latch. Unwrap the foil and place on a serving plate. You may need to use a butter knife to gently cut and remove the center can, wiggling it out gently. Fill center of ring with remaining jelly beans. Serve with a knife so guests can cut their own pieces! ENJOY.

Jelly beans and cake two of my favorite things.
Can you make this a couple days ahead.
Absolutely you can!
DIABEETUS!!!
You don’t get Diabetes from eating a piece of fudge. Just sayin.
This is PRECIOUS! I wish I’d seen this before Easter. My little onions would have loved to make this! And eat it!
I love how pretty this looks! Who new Jelly beans could make something so elegant looking 🙂 I bet its pretty tasty too!
Ha – I would totally have to hide the Jelly Bellys!! We were at my inlaws a couple of days ago, and they had a huge Costco sized container of them, and my daughter couldn’t keep her hands out of them. In fact, she said that’s what she wants for her next birthday – a big container of them all for herself!! LOVE this fudge, what a fun idea.
Oh I love that Costco sized container. I keep that in my office near where I work. It’s dangerous 😉
This is the cutest thing I’ve EVER seen!!! Just love it! 🙂

This fudge is adorable. 🙂 It’s perfect for Easter. I totally hid my halloween candy in my room as a kid!
What a creative way to use jelly beans. Can I just say, Jelly Belly is the best–nothing comes close. Love this sweet treat. Pinned.
Agreed wholeheartedly 🙂 Thanks for pinning Jennie!
This fudge is so pretty! I love the fudge ring! You are so funny about hiding your food! I have a shelf of “blogging food” that is off limits, unless someone HAS to have an Oreo. Luckily I only have one to hide from!
“Has” to have an Oreo. Haha, love it 🙂
Soooooo cute! Love this!
This fudge looks so great, Aimee! I love Jelly Belly and I know they would make a terrific and fun Easter fudge!
