Handmade Tradition

At Ryba’s Fudge Shops, the art of handcrafting creamy, delectable fudge transforms into a delightful public spectacle. Here, delicious new flavors are born, filling the air with the irresistible scent of freshly made fudge, drawing in visitors from near and far. Fondly referred to as ‘Fudgies,’ tourists eagerly gather to indulge in Ryba’s signature treats in the iconic pink box. Our grandfather, Harry Ryba, was known as the “Fudge King” of Mackinac Island, a legacy passed on to our father, Victor Callewaert, who in turn taught us. Today, as we prepare the next generation to continue our family tradition, every moment spent at Ryba’s promises to be a sweetly unforgettable experience, ensuring that our legacy of crafting the creamiest fudge on Mackinac Island lives on.

Big news for turtle lovers…🐢🍫 Our ½ lb Great Turtles will be back on ryba.com come November…yes, we’re already thinking about them too 😉
Fall called. We answered with something sweet. 🍂🍫

The cases are full of cozy-season favorites, caramel corn is ready for snacking, and Pumpkin Fudge is back for a limited time. There is no such thing as too many sweet treats this time of year.

Consider this your sign to stock up on all our fall favorites! 😋
We may have set Grant up. 😈🍫

For this year’s Fall Fudge Festival naming contest, all the island fudge shops created their own take on the winning name... Fudge Around and Find Out. Ours is rich chocolate fudge with cinnamon and cayenne, sweet at first with a spicy little kick at the finish. 

We told our coworker to do a taste test and two pieces were regular chocolate fudge and only one was Fudge Around and Find Out. 

Tiny problem for Grant: all three pieces were Fudge Around and Find Out.  And we may have made this batch a little extra spicy. 🌶️🥵

Major credit to Grant for being such a good sport, making us laugh, and always being one of the most fun to work with. Sorry, Grant. Kind of. 😂 🫶🏼
Cayenne pepper… in fudge? Hear us out. 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Every year, the Fudge Festival’s naming contest gives all the island’s fudge shops a winning name to inspire their own flavor. This year’s winner? “Fudge Around and Find Out.” 👀

Our version blends rich chocolate fudge with warm cinnamon and cayenne pepper. Creamy and chocolatey at first, with a playful kick at the finish that’s just spicy enough to live up to its name.

Consider this your invitation to fudge around and find out. 😉

Fudge Around and Find Out is a limited edition flavor only available in stores Oct 2-3 for the @mackinacisle Fall Fudge Festival.
