    Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji - Love Stinks Valentine Treats

    Poke some fun at Valentine's Day by passing out Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji to your friends who believe that love stinks. Watch the video tutorial to see how easy it is to turn a 2-ingredient recipe into one of the most popular emoji on the planet.

    Chocolate Poop Emoji Fudge

    When my nephew's girlfriend suggested I turn the insanely popular poop emoji into a treat, I hesitated, thinking no one would want to eat something that reminded them of poo. Would you?

    The funny thing is that the poop emoji was actually originally conceived to be a chocolate ice cream emoji so in all fairness it was supposed to be a tasty treat anyway. Also I've seen other's who have made poop emoji cupcakes, ice cream cake pops and meringue cookies.

    So I figured I'd come up with my own version of an edible smiling poo emoji. I wanted these Valentine's Day treats to be super easy, incredibly tasty, and ultimately cute.
    If your friends think "Love Stinks" then these Chocolate Caramel Smiling Poo Emoji treats might just make them smile. They are fun treats to pass out for Valentine's Day.

    Why turn chocolate caramel fudge into Emoji poo!

    I chose to use a 2-ingredient chocolate caramel fudge made using chocolate chips and a can of Dulce de Leche. If you aren't familiar with Dulce de Leche, it is caramelized sweetened condensed milk that has the most amazing caramel flavor. Once mixed and melted with chocolate chips it makes a rich and creamy fudge.

    I chose just the right ratio of chocolate to caramel so that my piles of chocolate poop would have cracks and look somewhat real.

    Gross, right?

    Once I added the candy eyes and made a smile from a white Candy Melts wafer, they were transformed into silly looking Smiling Poo Emoji. They actually are darn cute.

    Treat your friends with these sweet smelling and tasty Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji for Valentine's Day.

    Poo Emoji Fudge

    Don't you think?

    Being Valentine's Day is coming up I thought it would be fun to add a "Love Stinks" sign to my emoji. They would be so much fun to serve at an anti-Valentine's Day party or to your friends who may be fed up with the dating scene.

    These Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji are definitely one of the grossest looking desserts I've ever made and the reaction to them has been priceless. As gross as they look though, they taste great! They look fun all on their own but they would also make really fun toppers for poop cupcakes or poop emoji cakes.

    Poke some fun at Valentine's Day by passing out Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji to your friends who believe that love stinks. Watch the video tutorial to see how easy it is to turn a 2-ingredient recipe into one of the most popular emoji on the planet.

    To make these oddly fun treats you'll need some items you can find on Amazon (commission earned for sales).

    Course: Dessert
    Cuisine: American
    Keyword: emoji poo dessert, fudge emoji, valentines day dessert
    Servings: 10
    Author: Beth Jackson Klosterboer
    Ingredients
    • 16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 13.4 ounces Dulce de Leche (1 can)
    • 20 ½ inch candy eyes
    • 5-10 white Candy Melt Wafers
    Instructions
    1. Line a pan with parchment paper, wax paper, or a silicone mat.
    2. Combine the chocolate chips and Dulce de Leche in a medium saucepan.
    3. Heat over low heat, stirring frequently until just small pieces of solid chocolate remain.
    4. Remove from heat and let sit for 3-4 minutes, then stir until melted and smooth.
    5. Pour into a disposable pastry bag.
    6. Cut off the tip and pipe out 10 big swirls of the fudge.
    7. Immediately press two candy eyes onto each swirl.
    8. Then cut the white candy wafers into smiles and press onto the fudge just below the eyes.

    Sounds easy right?

    Notes:

    • Each of my Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji were  about 2 ¼ inches in diameter at the base and about 2 ½ inches tall. If you make smaller swirls of fudge, you may need smaller candy eyes.
    • If the fudge gets too hot it may get greasy. Make sure you only leave the fudge on the stove until about three quarters of the chocolate is melted. Then remove the pan from the heat and set it aside for a few minutes before stirring. The residual heat will melt the rest of the chocolate.

    Watch this video tutorial to see just how easy these Fudge Emoji are to make.


    So do you think you could eat a Chocolate Caramel Fudge Smiling Poo Emoji?

    Do you think your friends will find them hilarious enough to take a bite?

      I'm hoping to make these for my 10yo son's class. I'm concerned the fudge will be too hard to bite into for him and some of his classmates since they have braces. Is there a way to make the fudge just a bit softer?

        Hi Angel, these will actually have the texture of fudge so they'd be fine for kids with braces. Dulce de Leche is really creamy and only slightly sticky but when blended with chocolate the fudge becomes soft and creamy. I hope the kids like their fun treat!

        You can let them just sit out. The exterior of the fudge will dry out a bit which is fine. You can also put them in a zip top bag or an airtight container to keep them softer. They will stay fresh for at least 2 weeks at room temperature.

      Making them now and the fudge is really thick but greasy. I'm guessing I heated it too much. Is there a way to fix that? Should I add more chocolate chips?

      Reply
      • Beth

        February 13, 2017 at 8:41 am

        Sorry I didn't read this earlier. Yes, the chocolate got too hot. You can fix greasy fudge, by letting it rest for 10 minutes, then pouring it out onto a cool surface like marble, granite, or even a metal cookie sheet, then kneading it using a plastic bench scraper or spatula, until all the grease works it's way back into the fudge. At that point your fudge will be smooth.

        If you let your greasy fudge sit overnight you might have solid pieces of fat in the fudge. You can heat the fudge in the microwave on the defrost setting just long enough to melt the fat then do what I said above to knead the fat back into the fudge.

        Good luck!

        I'm so glad you and your son made these cute emoji treats. The fudge will firm up and the exterior will dry so that you can package them in clear cellophane bags or sandwich bags. You could also place them in small clear plastic cups and cover them with plastic wrap.

        I hope all of his friends enjoy their funny treats. Happy Valentine's Day!

      These are fantastic. I'm currently living in Indonesia & they don't have Dulce de Leche. They only have condensed milk. Can that be used instead?

      Reply

        February 07, 2017 at 3:21 pm

        You can simply make the fudge using the sweetened condensed milk but the fudge will just taste like chocolate. If you really want the caramel flavor then you can cook the sweetened condensed milk until it's caramelized. Some people will do that in the can, but I prefer to just pour the sweetened condensed milk into a saucepan, heat it over medium heat, stirring often, until it turns deep caramel brown. This can take quite a while, but it is worth the effort. It tastes amazing!

        The dulce de leche is quite thick and works well but a caramel sauce could work out too. You might just have to adjust the quantities. If you use melted caramels you probably will need less chocolate. If you use caramel sauce you'll probably need a bit more chocolate.

        You can just let them sit out at room temperature and they will dry. If you are in a hurry you can refrigerate them so that they firm up more quickly. They can be stored at room temperature for up to a few weeks.

        February 03, 2017 at 10:08 am

        Yes you can swap out milk chocolate chips, but being milk chocolate is softer than semi-sweet chocolate you will need to use 20 ounces of the chips instead of the 16 ounces. Your emoji will be lighter in color but that will work great for these poo emoji.
