A downtown presence since 1977, Schwab Fudge in Nashville, Indiana has seen a lot of change come to this small town.

This Brown County fudge shop uses a marble table and a copper pot–and that makes the difference!

I like that we could each try the fudge that appealed to us to decide for ourselves what we wanted to purchase and bring home! You know when there are kids along, it can make you feel a little funny to ask for a sample for everyone. But here, it’s not only okay, it’s encouraged!

The sign outside not only promises free samples, it promises free samples for the entire family! Now, that’s a nice touch. What parent hasn’t given up a sample for a kid? Now, no one gets left out and everyone gets a taste.

What varieties there are, too! These aren’t just the basic fudges, either. Yes, there’s chocolate fudge, but there’s also Whiskey Chocolate Pecan Fudge, the seasonal Pumpkin Spice or Candy Cane, Vanilla Pecan, and even Rocky Road.

Although the fudge is creamy and delicious, there’s more than just fudge!

During our visit, we saw packages of salt water taffy and all manner of chocolate covered goodness. So, just in case you aren’t in the mood for fudge, you can still grab an easy to carry snack for the road or as a gift (if you can resist!).

Now, Schwab’s Fudge is even carrying a selection of honey! Not only plain honey, there’s Orange Blossom Honey and Wetland Wildflower Honey (to name a few).

Under new ownership as of 2012, after the untimely death of founder Richard Schwab, after a two year battle with cancer, Schwab’s Fudge in Nashville, Indiana is now in the capable hands of long-term employee Sylvia Shroyer.

Pop in and pay this Indiana fudge shop a visit. Don’t worry about the weather. Summer or not: fudge won’t melt until the temperature hits 110*!
