American

Chocolate fudge frosting has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. It is believed to have originated in the United States, where it quickly became a popular choice for topping cakes and cupcakes. Renowned chefs and bakers, such as Fannie Farmer and Betty Crocker, contributed to its widespread popularity through their cookbooks and recipes. Today, the best versions of this decadent frosting can be found in classic American bakeries and pastry shops. The key to achieving the perfect chocolate fudge frosting lies in using high-quality cocoa and butter, as well as mastering the right balance of sweetness and creaminess.
