I am looking at this site that says visit Celeste Murdick at her fudge shop in charlevoix michigan to learn how real fudge is made, when I click on this it is not celeste store it is the fudge store across the steet I think you should check into this I don't think Celeste will be very happy that her store is not shown or her address or phone#. The page that shows is Murdicks Famous Fudge which is nothing to do with Celeste. Thank you if any questions please email me. Lyddy Morrison
Yo Lyddy, I just alerted our website wizards. Thanks for pointing the "missing-link" out.

Since we're all just trying to get it right here, how about posting a link to Celeste's store and her contact info, Lyddy?
Hi Scott, I talked with Celeste Murdick and they do not have a website, they do have some pictures they would like to put on. They would like to know how they could contact you if you could let me know we would appreciate that. Thank You Lyddy
Michigan is a great food state.
I grew up picking all the wild berries (then making them into homemade jam). Fishing for salmon, smelt, trout, and white fish (then smoking it for picnics on the beach).
We had lots of hunters and always had a traditional of making our own sausages.
Grandma had cherry trees and an apple tree for her prize winning homemade pies
I never realized that I was eating "gourmet food treats".
Thank you for highlighting ALL of Michigan's rich food heritage.
**Where can I get those great white dishes that you use in the resturant?

Hi there! I love your show and my husband and I have reservations at your restaurant in a couple weeks for my birthday. My question is - I am planning on making some strawberries dipped in chocolate for a birthday treat for a co-worker. Do you suggest any specific kind of chocolate?
Thanks and can't wait to go to your restaurant!

Hello!
Is it possible to get a podcast of the show filmed in Charlevoix?
My children were there during the filming and have been anxoius to see it.
Many thanks!
Kent and Lisa
Elle loved the apple show, watched it last night, how about that Herb!
And being the nut allergy family that we now are she loved the Michigan soy nut oil, we'll have to buy some.
She is so inspired she said is toasting Eggos for the Kids this morning.
I posted a question back in April and don't recall ever seeing an answer. Is there a way to get a podcast, or showing date of the episode that was filmed at a ice-cream/fudge place in Charlevoix? Thanks!
Lisa,
We don't have podcasts available of individual shows at this time. And as for an air date, every PBS station in Michigan is independant and they all show "Fork" at different times (and usually more than once)so, I can't tell you when it might have aired in your area.
Sorry, I wish I could be more help.
Scott
Hey Eric, it is Nikki. (Celeste and Leons daughter)… I'm just on line looking at all the Murdicks websites and saw this blog.(is that what you call it)haha.. Anyway, I'm just writing to inform you that my mom and dad are in the process of heading up a website. If you think it would be a good idea to post that website with their show and your recipe, just let me know and we'll keep in touch. thanks.
