It would have been informative if you had told that this is a miniature fondue pot. What good is that for a holiday get-together? The picture looks like a traditional fondue pot, so you need to designate “miniature” for your naive purchasers like me.My daughter said that the entire pot fits in her hand.

This is so much fun!! the cast iron keeps the chocolate nice and hot. The enamel coating is easy to clean when we are all done. The holder has the perfect spot for a tea light to keep the chocolate just the right temperature. I like that the handles of the forks are color coded so people can keep track of which one is theirs.

Very cute but it?s not meant for four people, the picture makes it seem like it?s bigger than it would be. It?s my fault for missing the 8oz but on other sites, the description shows it?s 10cm and it?s called mini fondue set. Great fondue set for ONE PERSON.

So much fun using this fondue pot. The cast iron can be heated either on the cooktop or in the oven up to 500 degrees F, and a simple candle is all that is needed to keep things going. Love using for dessert fondues as well as savory ones. Also useful for serving hot dips, and clarified butter when serving with lobster. Made in France too!

This is such a wonderful little gift to have. It’s very common for chocolate fondue, this fondu can also be for cheese dips, cheese spinach dips, variety of hot sauce or keep a self served warm appetizer..

My kids love this “kid” size fondue set. Fun for melting cheese dip, chocolate or marshmallow. I like that it uses smaller quantities, less waste and needs litlle storage space.

I received my Staub fondue pot. Yes, it is petite; but it is the perfect size for chocolate fondue. I also made a larger batch of cheese fondue and poured it into the mini cocotte. The tea candle kept the fondue at a perfect serving temperature.

If I could have fondue every day I would.The size is perfect for including on a cheese board to hold the warm dips and sauces as well as dessert boards with all the chocolate. Warm and cozy vibes will ensue!!

Great size fondue set for preparing and keeping sauce warm at the family dinner table. Choose a colored fondue fork and start dipping; veggies in cheese sauce; tortillas in queso, or just about anything in chocolate!

Kids gave this to me for my Birthday last year, in the hopes I’d try it out on them.. Used it during the holidays, but then put away for special occasions… Well this Pandemic seems to be the occasion we were waiting for! We’ve had the best bedtimes in a long time, after hours of homeschool nightmare, we put our books away, get dinner going, and start to talk about what we are going to Chocolate fondue tonight! The pot is so simple to use, not an excessive size that we waste the precious Chocolate, and so very easy to clean, that its no big deal to do it every night if we choose. Its just so nice to gather round, smile and giggle during the scary times. Thank you Staub and thank you Guittard!

This is a great fondue pot. With the cast iron mini cocotte, you can use that for other purposes beyond the fondue set, but its 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 purchased this for my kids for Christmas as a fun extra gift. We have used it quite a bit for all kinds of things. Of course our favorite is chocolate, but it did make an appearance on Super Bowl Sunday for nacho cheese sauce. Staub’s interior black matte finish keeps all sauces moist (never drys out) and hot.

Chocolate covered strawberries on demand was the one reason we purchased this fondue set! My family has been using this set almost daily and experimenting, of course chocolate makes everything taste better. I do wish it was a tad bit bigger, but because of the mini size, it is really convenient to take out and store. One huge benefit is the simplicity in cleaning! I look forward to many more years of enjoying our chocolate fondue set!

The guts of the set is the .25 mini-cocotte…which you can use for sauces and more. Keeps chocolate warm enough to gobble down!!!
