  • Add a little bit of cream or milk to the chocolate: This will help to make it smoother and creamier.
  • Flavor the fondue with citrus zest, spices, or liqueurs: This will give it a unique and delicious flavor.
  • Serve the fondue with a variety of dippers: This could include fruit, marshmallows, cookies, or pretzels.
  • Keep the fondue warm over a low flame or in a fondue pot: This will prevent it from hardening.
