Fat Phege's Fudge Factory
(Restaurants - Sweet Shop)
134-560 Johnson St, Victoria  V8W 3C6 • 250-383-3435 • 866-383-3435
Distance: ~0.676 km from The Fairmont Empress
Description: DOWNTOWN. Opened in 1976, Fat Phege's has been providing Victorians with the creamiest hand-rolled fudge in town, and a whole lot more. The little shop also offers dandy ice cream, hot dogs, burgers and fries. But that fudge – it comes in indulgent flavors like rocky road, chocolate amaretto, chocolate Grand Marnier, chocolate chip cookie dough (amazingly, it really does taste like cookie dough!), and peanut butter. And for purists, there's "plain" unadulterated chocolate fudge that will make you swoon. Alternatively, try out an Opera Roll, smooth French nougat wrapped in caramel and chopped nuts.

My sister and brother-in-law used to worship Fat Phege's when they lived in Victoria in the early 80's. When they came to visit last year they were really disappointed with how the place had declined. Most of the fudge I've had from Phege's has not seemed fresh, and often is starting to dry out and crack when you get it. Its too bad - it was legendary when it started. Its also quite expensive.
