It’s fun, it’s groovy, it’s fondue and it’s for two. Famed potter and artist, Jonathan Adler , has created this ultra swanky fondue pot exclusively for Chocolate Bar .

Chocolate Bar’s Fondue For Two by JonathonAdler features one natural toned ceramic fondue pot, 2 fondue forks, a tea light, 2 signature bittersweet bars by Chocolate Bar and a complete fondue recipe card.

We recommend surrounding the pot with heaps of accompaniments such as fruits, marshmallows, cinnamon pastry straws, fresh pound cake, and sprigs of mint leaves. Fondue, a culinary phenomenon that keeps reinventing itself originated in Switzerland as a classic peasant dish comprised mainly of Emmenthaler and/or Gruyere cheese and wine. Fondue was made popular in the 50’s as the centerpiece for every dinner party and later followed by Chocolate fondue in 1964 tantalizing our taste buds and melting our hearts.
