Resembling fudge in texture or appearance; soft, dense, and slightly sticky.
From 'fudge' (the candy) plus the adjective suffix '-y', which transforms nouns into descriptive adjectives meaning 'having the quality of' or 'resembling'.
Taste and texture words are some of the most creative in English, and '-y' adjectives let us describe food in visceral ways—'fudgy,' 'crunchy,' 'chewy'—that feel like you're actually experiencing the food.
