If you love salted caramel treats, then you must try salted pumpkin fudge! My husband and I disagree on the whole “salted” obsession. I love it. He isn’t so sure but I’m slowly moving him over to the dark side one treat at a time. He even loved this salted pumpkin fudge.
Salted caramel treats are some of my favorite because the salt pairs perfectly well with the sweet caramel. Pumpkin fudge is quite sweet too so the sea salt is a fitting touch.

Salted Pumpkin Fudge
Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 5 ounces evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup mashed pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice - or ground cinnamon
- 1 7-ounce container marshmallow creme - aka "marshmallow fluff"
- 1 12-ounce package white chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- sea salt - for garnish
Instructions
- Line a square 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper for easy fudge removal!
- Combine sugars, butter, evaporated milk, pumpkin puree and spices in a medium saucepan over medium heat until melted and smooth.
- Continue stirring until temperature reaches 234℉ (soft ball stage).
- Quickly remove from heat (to prevent burning), stir in white chocolate chips, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Stir until melted and combined.
- Pour fudge into prepared baking pan. Garnish with sea salt. Of course you can leave the sea salt off if you want plain pumpkin fudge, especially if serving to children who might find the sea salt flavor a bit too strong. Or give this recipe a twist by drizzling it with darkchocolate or caramel! This pumpkin fudge will instantly become a familyfavorite for years to come.
- Allow to cool completely before cutting into square. You can also chill before cutting to make it easier to cut perfect squares.
This looks sooo delicious…can’t wait to try it!

Salted pumpkin?! Never thought of combining the two, but I sure do love salted caramel. And fudge.
Thanks Carla!!
This fudge looks crazy delicious! I love it!
Interesting idea! This pumpkin fudge looks heavenly delicious! I love that time of the year when pumpkins are everywhere!
Silly question….I have evaporated milk and I have sweetened condensed milk, but I have never seen evaporated condensed milk…which is used for this recipe? Thanks.
Sorry, one more thought..the recipe reads “1 1/2 oz. pkg of white chocolate chips”. Obviously there are no .5 oz pkg’s so not sure if you meant 1/2 package (6 oz) 0r 1.5 ounces of chips. Thanks
or 1 – 12 oz. package of white chocolate chips?
I looked on another link about pumpkin fudge and it was very similar. They said, evaporated milk, and instead of marshmallow cream, 7 oz of mini marshmallows = 3 cups. And theirs included 9 oz. of white chocolate chips, so I’m assuming this one is 12 oz. of chips, not .5 oz. or 1/2 a bag (6 oz). I think the slash (/) was added by mistake.
The link for the recipe is broken!
