Probably got the mix not quite right. Fudge and toffee are very alike in the ingredients.

The bits you dripped into cold water should have set hard before you put it into the tray.

I haven't made it for many years, but I remember that it set almost immediately and whatever consistency it was within a matter of minutes (as it cooled down), that's how it stayed! If it didn't set hard, we referred to it as "stick-jaw".
