It is strange that in Switzerland chocolate fondue is not popular. You would think with all the chocolate and that fondue is a national dish it would be on the top of their dessert list. But really think it is a dessert that brings people todgether enjoying dipping the cake, biscotti and fruits into the silky chocolate. This sounds very interesting.

With all recipes of the typical Chocolate Fondues combined, none have come close to this light, scrumptious and decadent guiltless version. Over the years and many experimental tries later, I finally managed to make the ingredients blend just right.
The fact that there's no need for a bottom burner to keep the chocolate soft and smooth is definitely an added bonus.
