    Transfer cheese mixture to fondue pot. Keep warm over low flame. To serve, dip bread cubes into fondue.

  • Fondue is a natural for a romantic dinner for two. Remember the fondue rule: a dropped dipper requires a kiss!
  • The name fondue comes from the French word "fondre," which means "to melt". Whether cheese, wine or chocolate, fondue tastes great in any language!
  • In addition to dipping bread cubes into fondue, try cut-up bagels, soft breadsticks or fresh vegetables such as sliced carrots, cherry tomatoes, broccoli florets or cauliflower florets.
  • Not enough fondue forks to go around? Bamboo skewers used for kabobs are a great disposable stand-in.
  • If fondue becomes too thick, stir in a small amount of milk.
