Smooth, melty, delicious healthy lemon fudge.
Traditional lemon fudge is one of those desserts that couldn’t possibly be mistaken for something even remotely healthy. Many of the most popular lemon fudge recipes are made up of 1/2 cup butter, 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk, 3/4 cup marshmallow cream, and an entire 2 packages of white chocolate chips… Oh hi, ridiculous sugar overload!
This vegan & no-bake lemon fudge is incredibly rich and smooth, without any of those sugary ingredients.

Is there anything I can sub for coconut butter?
Are you allergic or just can’t find it? If you can’t find it you can make your own https://lett-trim.today/2011/01/26/make-your-own-coconut-butter/%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E
I am allergic to Coconut so can I use Crisco or Natural Butter? Oil and I sub Olive or anything?
You could use any nut/seed butter. She has recipes for other “nut butter” fudge. I definitely wouldn’t use Crisco, though.
This looks so good!! I have everything but the coconut oil. Making this SOON!
Looks delicious! I just made your chocolate peanut butter fudge that you posted on instagram the other day and it was hard to keep my hands off of! 🙂
oh how cute and delicious they look! How come I have never seen lemon fudge in Swizerland??! I have to change that and introduce my family to it ASAP
I just made this! I used homemade coconut butter and zest and juice of 1 lemon, which was about a tbsp of lemon juice. And I used agave in place of the maple syrup. It is so delish!!!
does it have a strong coconut flavor?
I think the lemon masks any coconut flavor!
LEMON FUDGE?! I can’t believe that you made this idea real! What a clever recipe this is!
Hi, I subscribed to receive your recipes by email and it has worked for the past year or so but emails have stopped in recent weeks.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post my question.
