Penuche (Italian: panucci) is a fudge-like candy made from brown sugar butter and milk using no flavorings except for vanilla. Penuche often has a tannish color and is lighter than regular fudge. It is formed by the caramelization of brown sugar; thus its flavor is said to be reminiscent of caramel. Nuts especially pecans are often added to penuche for texture especially in the making of penuche candies.
