According to the Roly’s website, the brand originated in Devon over 35 years ago, and now has 47 independently-run family fudge pantries across the UK. Each shop uses traditional recipes to make fresh fudge every day, handmade in full view for customers to see.
It has three other shops in Sussex, in Arundel, Brighton and Hastings.
