Fudge is a perishable delight, and its longevity depends on how it’s stored. For optimal freshness, we recommend consuming your fudge within ten days of purchase. Excessive exposure to air can cause the fudge to dry out slightly, just trim the dried edges, and the inside will still be creamy and delicious. If you have the willpower to save your fudge for later, wrap it tight in heavy wax paper or freezer wrap and pop it in the freezer for up to six months. When you’re ready to indulge again, allow it a bit of thawing time, and it’ll be as delightful as the day you first savored its sweet embrace.

Trim the dried edges, and the inside will still be creamy and delicious. If you have the willpower to save your fudge for later, wrap it up nice and tight in heavy wax paper or freezer wrap and pop it in the freezer for up to six months. After a bit of thawing time, it’ll be good as gold.

If you’re hoping for your fudge to arrive by a specific date, you can specify this in the “Order Notes” at checkout. If your delivery date is longer than three days from your order date, we may choose to delay the processing and shipment of your order so that your fudge and other sweet treats arrive as fresh as possible. Our online ordering system requires us to charge your credit card at the time of your order, even if the shipment is requested for a later date. But don’t worry; we’ll process your order accordingly and have your delicious fudge headed your way when you want it.
We use the traditional ingredients of cream, sugar, corn syrup, palm kernel oil, and salt when making most of our fudge flavors. (Our vegan fudge does not contain any dairy.) For our chocolate flavors, occasionally we use chocolate that contains soy lecithin. We add nuts and other ingredients to create our menu of fudge flavors.
Every flavor of fudge, except for Oreo, is gluten-free.
All our fudge is made in-house in our Ryba’s shops, where we handle walnuts, pecans, cashews, and peanuts. While we take careful precautions to avoid any allergy contamination, we cannot guarantee that any flavor is entirely free of traces of nuts.

Harry Ryba, the visionary founder of Ryba’s Mackinac Island Fudge, established a legacy of creamy, delectable fudge. Recognized by its signature pink boxes and storefronts, Ryba’s continues to delight thousands of eager tourists annually.
Our marble tables are an essential part of the fudge-making process at Ryba’s. Marble naturally absorbs heat, making it the perfect surface to cream and cool our fudge. During the day, we rotate between 3-4 tables to ensure the marble has enough time to cool between batches. Regardless, the marble will heat up slowly during the day as it absorbs in the heat from each batch of fudge.
The ideal starting point for the marble each morning is as close to the surrounding air temperature as we can manage. If the marble begins too cold, the stone can “shock” the fudge and cause it to cool and set up unevenly. Since the night air is generally much colder than during the day, electric blankets keep the marble slabs at the correct temperature throughout the night so we can start right back to making the creamiest fudge on Mackinac Island in the morning.
Before we close the store each night, we slip low-powered electric blankets onto the marble fudge tables we intend to use the next morning. This does not heat the tables but rather maintains the heat present in the marble so each morning starts with lukewarm slabs. With the magic of this seemingly simple innovation, our fudge sets up evenly every time!
Though we love our nearby neighbors to the north, the whole international shipping/customs thing sure puts a wrench in any possible fudge supply chain. Long delivery times and border delays don’t mesh well with our perishable products. So instead, we’ll have to wait until we see our Canadian friends in person on Mackinac Island.
Mackinac Island’s transition from its fur trading and military origins in the mid-19th century to a vacation destination sparked its fame for sweets, notably maple sugar.
