Remember this post?? Well, the fine people over at CSN Stores sent out my fondue pot within just a few days. But, as usual, I have been so busy, I haven’t had a chance to use it, let alone review it!!
UNTIL NOW!!!
I am so glad that CSN Stores offered me the chance to review this fondue pot.
It.Is.Fabulous.
I used a couple recipes from the owner’s booklet that came with the fondue pot. I wasn’t impressed with the first one we tried (the one we used for the pictures). And honestly, we added a few ingredients to the cream cheese recipe to try to “kick it up a notch” and it did help, but I was looking for something with a little more umph!! But the chocolate recipe was good!!!
The pot itself was great!! All the ingredients melted like they were supposed to, and the easy-to-read/use heat settings were nice. All it took to make the fondue sauces we used was the warm setting on the dial.
The fondue pot I got included eight “forks”, each with a different colored “dot” at the end of the stick so you don’t have to worry about mixing them up when using them with friends. I, of course picked the pink one!! Then the kids fought over the rest…but it all worked out. It also has a stay-cool ring that sits on the top of the pot itself to hold the forks and catch drips and such. It is electric but fully immersible for washing, which is nice. It was very easy to clean after both recipes, cheese and chocolate. Overall, I think this is a great product.
The only thing I would do different is make the pot divided. It is big enough that you could do two fondues at once. Once sweet and one savory, for example. It would be great to be able to both without having to take one fondue out and wash the pot and start over on another!! Just a suggestion Rival!! =)
I give this Fondue Pot ♥♥♥♥ (4 hearts)!!!
(since I don’t have stars on my character thingy, I will use hearts for rating on my reviews…1 heart being very poor, 2 hearts being poor, 3 hearts being average, 4 hearts being good and 5 hearts being very good).
Here are some pictures of our Fondue Party!!
So there you have it. Rival’s 3 qt. Stainless Steel Fondue Set is a big hit at our house!!!
Isn’t my “little” helper too cute?? Love you pumpkin_seed, Thanks for helping out!!
Carry On =)
