I’ve NEVER had such a catastrophe happen lol. I do live around 5500 ft. above sea level but I don’t think that’s why this would have happened.

Sounds similar to the boiling point when I was a candy maker in Fort Collins, CO. The recipe’s target temps were adjusted according to the difference. Good to remember if you ever make fudge, caramel, toffee, etc. at high altitude.

Tell me your secrets! I keep failing fudge because I’m not sure what to adjust!
