I make fondue a few times every winter and always on New Year's Eve. Love how this heats up and retains the heat so well. I have a few of them for different fondues all at the same time. I also love the look of these on the table!!
Cast Iron fondue pot, the name practically sells itself! Yes, this does make an amazing cheese fondue, but once you start experimenting the possibilities are almost endless! Perfect size for making an appetizer dip; my kids love making nacho cheese to pour over tortilla chips! My craziest use so far has been to make s’mores. We melted some chocolate while roasting marshmallows on the stovetop, quickly dipped the marshmallow and put it between to graham crackers...yum!
This is a great fondue pot. With the cast iron mini cocotte with handle, you can use that for other purposes beyond the fondue set, but it’s great for melting cheese, chocolates effectively since the cast iron heats up really well and retains the heat for a long time. A great piece for hosting that perfect dinner party.
I know this is a Cheese Fondue pot but its perfect for melting cheese for other purposes. I melt my gruyere and cheddar in this to put on my mac and cheese. its easy to clean but more importantly, it melts it evenly and doesn't burn on the bottom. I love this pot and am thinking it would work for chocolate too!
