Going to Mackinac Island was definitely a bucket list item for us!

We had the opportunity to spend 2 beautiful days on the island during our time in Michigan.

And, despite the millions of midge flies, we had an amazing time! 😂

The first day, we simply went to walk around and explore Main Street and some of the surrounding areas.

We rode sheplersferry which we highly recommend!

Stepping onto Main Street reminded us of Main Street at Disneyland 🙂

There’s something magical about it ✨

We enjoyed a ride to the Grand Hotel in a horse drawn carriage, we visited some of the many shops and, of course, tried lots of fudge!

joannsfudge was the best!! From the environment to the customer service to the fudge. Be sure you visit them!!

Some favorite flavors included: peanut butter, chocolate peanut butter and the double dark chocolate salted caramel.

Have you been to Mackinac? Do you have a favorite fudge flavor?

Stay tuned for more see.do.share Mackinac adventures 😉 #mymackinac ...

Eating a lot of fudge while spending the weekend on Mackinac Island was inevitable, so I tried to make it into a learning experience by comparing the different types while I was at it. Overall Murdick’s fudge has a more mature and complex flavor and texture, while Ryba’s and Joann’s have softer fudge with a simpler, but still delicious, flavor. Here’s the breakdown:
~ rybasfudge is the softest and smoothest. All three flavors, chocolate peanut butter, plain chocolate, and sea salt caramel were delicious, with the sea salt caramel being the favorite in my family because of the nice balance between salty and sweet. I enjoyed the chocolate peanut butter, but if you don’t love the peanut butter flavor or want a lighter fudge, I would suggest getting a different flavor since the peanut butter mixed with the already very sweet fudge might be too rich for some people’s taste.
~ joannsfudge is still soft, but, at least in the double dark chocolate that I tried, has a slightly grainer texture. The double dark chocolate had a less sweet flavor than the regular chocolate, which is good if you don’t like things that are too sweet.
~ originalmurdicks has the biggest texture difference. It has a grainier texture, which some people thought made it better than other kinds that were smoother, and is firmer, as you can see in the video. The plain chocolate also had a more caramelly flavor.

We had heard a rumor that you aren’t allowed to leave Mackinac Island unless you have tried some fudge and although we enjoyed our stay we had to leave at some point so we tried the fudge. We would recommend getting a variety, because it’s all good, but Nicole preferred the salted caramel from originalmurdicks and Nate’s favorite was the peanut butter from rybasfudge
I’m thinking you can’t really go wrong!

I said yes!

We met on Mackinac Island 4 years ago, and immediately fell in love. Together, we spent 2 AMAZING seasons working for Joann's Fudge as Fudge Boy and Fudge Girl.

I am so fortunate to be engaged to my best friend as our Joann's family watched in awe!

Jimmy Ewald also hired a photographer for the event, so there will be a TON more pictures to come ❤💍

THANK YOU SO MUCH lanasphoto 💜

Wow!! Yesterday was a perfect day for Jennifer and Ricky after having to postpone from 2020. Mission Point was amazing with food and service and Ste. Anne’s is always lovely. So happy I got to be a part of their day.

Had twenty million loads of laundry today so... fudge run! joannsfudge ...

Took a step back in time on Mackinaw Island. It is such a beautiful place to visit and so much to see and do. The best park was spending time with our awesome friends. ❤
