Tips
This is a really popular type of cheesecake and if you can't get Orkney fudge you could use any tablet type of fudge that you can grate - chewy types won't really work.

Where I live in Scotland you can get it in Tescos but if you are in England you might have to get it mail order. Any kind of tablet style fudge will work - as long as you can grate it
